Insurance - France - Other Car

[over_the_hill]

I'm possibly heading to France in a few weeks time in a car that isn't mine. I've agreed to share the driving but having never done this before I'm not sure what is the most cost effective way (generally) to sort out insurance.

Presumably it's to add me to the owners policy short term (for some £'s).

Thanks

For Le Mans, I added my brother & friend to my policy, £15 + admin charge.

Did this last week for my trip to Classic Le Man next week.

The owner of the car needs to ring their insurance provider and ask to have somebody else put on their policy. They will need all your details (standard insurance details) and will advise of the cost.

Takes about 20 mins; then just wait for the documents to come through.

OT - Don't forget to take your insurance certificate with you to France. Le Plod might ask to see it.
