What is multi car insurance?
Multi car insurance is a way of insuring a second, third or even fourth car under the same policy – like a single big umbrella keeping the rain off a few people, rather than there just being room for one. With a third of households having a second car in England, multi car insurance can be an option to consider.
Some companies provide a special ‘umbrella’ policy for more than one car, with just one renewal date and one set of documents to deal with in most cases. Here at Saga, we prefer to keep things simple with each car having its own policy – but there are certainly some great reasons for insuring all your cars with us.
How does multi car insurance work?
The way multi car insurance works can vary between providers. Generally, there’s a limit on the number of cars you can have on the policy – around 6 at most. You can take out cover for two or more cars at the same time.
But more usually, you’d get one car insured normally and then add a second car when its renewal is due. The insurer would perhaps then extend the original car’s cover so that both eventually renew at the same time.
With Saga you can insure as many cars are you like at the same address, all with their own policies, cover and renewal dates.
If you pay your premium annually rather than spread out over monthly instalments, having different dates will mean you don't have to pay for two or more cars all on the same day.
Great reasons to insure all your cars with Saga
