Is third party, fire and theft car insurance the right cover for you?
Choosing between the two types of car insurance coverage: Comprehensive or Third Party, Fire and Theft, will depend on what level of cover you want and need. If you don’t drive regularly and want a more affordable option but are able to pay for the cost of repairs if your car is damaged, third party, fire and theft insurance may be the best option. But if you drive every day and want the maximum level of coverage, it may be worth investigating comprehensive cover.
