Car dealer insurance

Your business will incorporate a number of activities that will require car traders insurance to cover all eventualities. As well as having a number of valuable assets to insure, liability insurance must be a key consideration to protect your clients and staff, as well as road risk insurance to protect you whilst driving vehicles on the road.

At Premierline, we offer flexible car dealer insurance policies that can protect non-motor risks at your car dealership. When deciding what insurance and covers you need to protect your shop, you should consider the following:

• Public liability – for injured shop visitors or damage to their property.
• Employers’ liability – to protect your shop employees.
• Buildings cover – to cover for loss or damage to your shop premises.
• Equipment, contents and stock – to reinstate your items and belongings.
• Business interruption – to keep finances running when disaster strikes.
• Money cover – for theft or attempted theft.
• Goods in transit – to cover for loss or damage to stock when in transit, loading or unloading.
• Business legal expenses – to cover the cost of legal expenses or defending your shop against legal action.
• Specialist motor trade covers – such as road risk insurance and demonstration of vehicles covers.

More information

Typically the more cover you require the higher the premium. The value you gain from having the right cover in place is a huge benefit to your business. A car dealer insurance policy is a product that you have paid for that you may never get to use, but also a product you hope that you will never need to call on.
