Hi,
If you need cover whilst in the garage for just accidental damage fire and theft we can offer policies just for this type of cover. If you'd like any further details please feel free to drop me a line.
Regards,
Dan.

Been looking into this too. UK roads are crap in winter, especially with the salt that gets put down. My Insurer won't allow me to have a second car so I either insure a winter runabout with 0 years of NCB or swap insurance for a few months...

I remove my insurance off my impreza and buy a rubbish run around like a non turbo. Then garage it for 6 months. Transfer insurance. Sometimes I run both together for few months using 0 NBC but not massive more as in insurance details they ask how many years no claiming insurance on another car you have.

I use a broker that mirrors my no claims bonus on my daily. The policy started off with 4 years no claims which has now built up to max ncb.
