No problem. You should be able to keep your NCD active for a couple of years without insuring a car.

i guess you just ask them to send you proof of no claims etc. then send that on when i start up a policy again

sure about that length of time?

Your renewal notice should have details of your no-claims entitlement; hold on to it.

As for the length of time, g/f did exactly that a few years back. Hadn't had a car for a couple of years and had no problems transferring the no claims.

Most companies will go back 2 years, a handful 3 years and less for longer.

Funnily enough, I am with Flux and have just told them the same after their renewal was around 50% more than last year. Another claim free year, and I've turned 30, and have had a kid, so I'm obviously a worse risk than last year

The chap told me that they'd paid out stupid amounts on imprezas last year tho.
