Third party, fire and theft car insurance

While this is our lower level of cover, it gives you more cover than the basic ‘third party’ cover that everyone legally needs on the road in the UK. However, third party, fire and theft won't cover you or your car, so you'll have to pay for any damage to your own car, and for any costs if you're injured.

What is covered?

• Injury to others, including your passengers
• Damage you caused to someone else's vehicle
• Damage to someone else's property
• Theft or fire damage to your own vehicle
• A contribution towards any legal fees that might come about if you’re in an accident that you're legally liable for

What's not covered?

• Damage you caused to your own car
• Cover for driving someone else’s car
• Cover for your own private treatment if you cause an accident
• Breakdown cover, although this can usually be added as an extra
• Any punctures, cuts or bursts to your tyres
• Electrical breakdown
• Cover for you, your partner or named drivers in case of serious injury or death from a road accident

With comprehensive cover, you're covered whether or not you're to blame.

Comprehensive includes everything covered under third-party, fire and theft, plus damage to your own vehicle and can include injury to you or named drivers.

Comprehensive cover can also include extras like using the wrong fuel or losing your car key. Some of these features might cost extra, so always check your policy documents.
