Information about Privilege
Privilege offers a number of policyholder benefits, including:
- A courtesy car provided as standard, on the condition you have comprehensive cover and use Privilege’s approved repairer. All repairs carried out by approved repairers are then guaranteed for five years.
- If you are in an accident caused by an uninsured driver, your comprehensive policy will protect your no claims bonus and cover any excess payments, subject to conditions.
- If your vehicle is written off, you will be provided with a new replacement car of the same month and model, provided your car is under 12 months old and you have a comprehensive policy.
- If a child car seat is damaged following an accident, theft or fire, you’ll be covered for the cost of a replacement.

Why it pays to shop around
If you ‘auto-renew’ your car insurance with your existing insurer, you could be missing out on substantial savings as these renewal premiums are often set at a higher price than the year before, with cheaper prices reserved for new rather than loyal customers.
