Motor Trade Road Risk Insurance

Covers your liability when driving, testing, or moving customer vehicles on public roads. Required if you road-test customer cars as part of your service or repairs.

Motor Trade Road Risk for mechanics and the motor trade

About This Cover

Motor Trade Road Risk insurance allows you and your authorised drivers to legally drive customer vehicles, trade vehicles, and your own business vehicles on public roads.

Unlike a standard motor policy, Motor Trade Road Risk provides the flexibility your business needs, covering a wide range of vehicles without requiring each one to be individually listed on a schedule. Whether you are road-testing a repaired vehicle, collecting a customer's car, delivering a completed job, or moving stock between locations, it keeps you legal and protected.

Comprehensive, third-party fire & theft, and third-party only options are available, with premiums that reflect the realities of running a motor trade business.

  • Flexible driver scope, principals and authorised employees
