As a broker we will always do our best to provide you with a very low competitive quote and beleive we fill a niche in the market because so many insurers are unable to provide cheap motor trade insurance in the UK. It is crucial that you have a valid insurance policy in place to provide cover for your activities as a motor trader, failure to have a policy in place could not only result in major losses with regards to vehicles should the worst happen but also a criminal conviction for driving a vehicle without a minimum of third party insurance.

The low premium you pay for your motor trade insurance will be based on several factors, for example if you required comprehensive cover then you may find that you pay a higher price than if you only required third party insurance. The following are other factors which may ultimately have an effect on how much you pay:

  • Third party cover to provide cover for any damages you cause to a third parties vehicle.
  • Third party fire and theft cover to cover any damage you cause to a third party damage or if your own vehicle is effect by fire or is stolen.
  • Comprehensive cover to provide cover for damage caused to third parties and the repair or replacement of your own vehicles.
  • Maximum Indemnity required per vehicle.
  • The amount of excess you are prepared to pay should you need to make a claim on your insurance.
  • Whether you are a full time motor trader or simply part time.
  • The amount of time you have been working as a motor trader and your experience in the trade.

Above are only a few factors which may have an effect on the premium when applying for a cheap motor trade insurance quote, below are some factors which may effect the price depending on the percentage of each task you carry out.

  • The amount of time and general percentage of your business operations you spend selling used cars
  • The percentage of business operations dedicated to selling new cars
  • How often your business is involved in selling accessories and parts
  • How often you fit windscreens
  • Time spent fitting tyres
  • The percentage of time spent repairing vehicles
  • Working on auto electronics
  • Servicing vehicles
  • Recovery of vehicles

When setting up your motor trade insurance you will have to provide the details of every driver you wish to be insured under the policy, obviously you may find that your premium is cheaper if you have drivers with advanced driving experience than if you were to for example have drivers which have speeding convictions and such like. Just like a standard motor insurance policy you may find that your claims history has a negative impact on your premium.

Another rating factor which may mean you pay more or less for your policy is the location you trade from, for example you may find that you get a cheap motor trade insurance UK policy if you trade from a lockup rather than a residential property such as within the boundaries of your own home. Import and export services may also have an effect on your policy so it is important to make sure you disclose all facts with regards to your business which could have an effect on your quotation.
