Buying a new car? Congrats! Now it's time to get it home.
Here's what you need to know about Cuvva's drive away insurance eligibility 👇
Your age
For drive away insurance, you need to be aged between 19 and 79.
Your driving licence
You must have held a full licence for at least one year.
You can use Cuvva with a driving licence issued in the UK (England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland), as well as most countries in the EU and some outside of it. Here's a full list of international licences we cover.
We can't accept licences issued in the Channel Islands, or the Isle of Man, because these regions have different licensing authorities.
Your vehicle
Drive away insurance can be used on cars up to 40 years old. Vans can be up to 20 years old.
We can cover cars that are worth up to £100,000, or vans that are worth up to £40,000.
The vehicle must have a UK plate (issued in England, Scotland, Wales, or Northern Ireland).
Modifications
We insure cars with lots of different modifications, including any that have been adapted for disabilities, and some that help with security and driving like dash cams or parking sensors. Check out the full list of approved modifications here.
Other things to keep in mind
We’re super proud that we’ve supported 1.5 million+ people to get on the road safely. Sadly, sometimes there are times when we can’t offer insurance.
We work with our underwriters to offer insurance to as many people as possible, but their rules may change from time to time. Sometimes it may mean we might not be able to cover you in a car, even though we have before. We’re sorry. Although we might not be able to insure you today, we may be able to cover you in the future.
Past accidents, claims, licence points, and convictions may affect getting a quote. That doesn't mean that we won't be able to cover you - often we can. But there may be some restrictions.
Missing data: Occasionally, our system won't be able to find your licence, or the vehicle you want to insure. This is extremely rare. But if it does happen, it's sadly out of our control. We get our licence and vehicle data from the DVLA, so you'd need to contact them.
Frozen account: If your Cuvva account is frozen, it normally means that our team needs to speak to you about something that's happened on your account. Contact customer support as soon as you can and we’ll try to help you sort it out quickly.
Our customer support team are on hand if you have any questions.
