Why You Might Need Short Term Cover in Edinburgh
Driving in and around Edinburgh requires complete peace of mind. Traditional annual insurance policies are rigid and expensive if you only need a vehicle for a short period. Our flexible, temporary car insurance is specifically designed to fill the gaps in the UK insurance market.
With WowGetItNow, you can secure fully comprehensive cover in Edinburgh within two minutes. From a quick 1-hour policy to pick up furniture, up to a 28-day policy for a long family road trip.
Our specialized cover options in Edinburgh
Borrowing a Friend's Car
Borrowing a car in Edinburgh? Don't risk driving uninsured or risking your friend's No Claims Discount. Our temporary policy operates independently. If you have a bump on the busy roads of Edinburgh, the owner's NCD remains completely untouched.
Learner Driver Insurance
Practicing for your driving test in Edinburgh? Annual learner policies are notoriously expensive. Buy hourly or daily cover so you only pay while you're actually practicing. You must be accompanied by a qualified driver over 21 who has held their license for at least 3 years.
Temporary Van Insurance
Moving flat within Edinburgh or picking up heavy materials? Hiring a "man with a van" can be costly. Borrow a friend's van or cover your own commercial vehicle for a few days to get the job done affordably.
Impound Car Insurance
If your vehicle has been seized by the police in Edinburgh, standard insurance companies rarely provide the specialized 30-day impound cover required to release it. We offer bespoke policies designed to satisfy the compound's strict legal requirements.
