Motor trade insurance
B. Portwood & Co Ltd offer motor
trade insurance quotations online for the smaller dealer in the UK (larger risks on referral)
and can include demonstration cover. For full time and part time dealers
we can offer motor trade insurance
Definitions
- Full time motor trade: Your sole source of
income is through the motor trade business for which you are
requesting an on-line quotation.
- Part time motor trade: You are employed
elsewhere. This means that your income is paid through the PAYE
system and your employer pays additional National Insurance. You
must not own/ operate another business or be self-employed outside
the trade.
- If you meet these qualifications our motor trade
insurance policy may be right for you.
Driving Restrictions
- Full time: We can quote on-line for up to 4 drivers and can also
include use for up to 2 spouses for pleasure or business use. Additional
drivers must be between 21 and 69.
- Part time: We cover yourself, your spouse
and one employee. The employee must be between 25 and 69, your
spouse (inc common law) between 21 and 69
- All drivers must hold a full driving license for
one year.

quote on-line for some of these and we offer reduced rates if all

Premises cover
Unlike some policies our motor
trade insurance policy will provide insurance
for vehicles at home even if you do operate from home. We
can also offer insurance limits from £7,500 to £20,000
per vehicle on our Comprehensive policy if you are full time or £10,000
if you are part time. (The sum insured f should be based on trade prices
of your vehicles).
If you operate from premises and require additional
cover for your business we can quote you for a combined policy. We cannot, however provide such a quote online but
would be only too pleased to do so if you contact us.
Not buying and selling?
If you are in a similar occupation e.g. valet, panel
beater, mechanic, motor engineer, tuner, servicer,
repairer, breakdown/ accident recovery operators and require motor
trade insurance we have
a similar policy which is restricted to your own vehicle(s)
and allows you to drive other vehicles for up-keep,
service or repair. Please ask for our motorserv product.
If you obtain a quotation from the computer and it is
not competitive or you do not qualify for it, please e-mail
us (enquiries@portwood.co.uk) and we can use our expertise
to obtain a fresh quotation.
Liability
You should always have cover for your public and
employers liability. We are able to offer quotations for your cover,
if you contact us, with a special scheme. Click

Duty of disclosure
May we remind you that you have a duty of disclosure
of all material facts when applying for any policy, at renewal or when
they change. Examples of material facts for motor trade insurance would
be: Non-motor convictions, specialisms in unusual vehicles - American,
Vintage, Veteran Grey Imports etc. If you are doubt whether a fact is
material it should be disclosed as failure to do so could affect your
policy should you need to claim.
