A day of cover, start to finish
Day policies suit borrowing a family car, sharing the driving on a long trip, driving a newly purchased vehicle home, or covering a single day of unusual travel that your own insurance does not stretch to.
Cover runs for a full 24 hours from the start time you choose, so an overnight policy that begins at 6pm runs through to 6pm the following day.
Why not just be added as a named driver?
Adding a named driver mid-term usually means an administration fee and a re-rate of the entire annual premium — and if you have an incident, the policyholder's no-claims discount takes the hit.
A day policy sits entirely in your name. Their annual cover, their discount and their renewal price are all left alone.
