Car insurance optional extras

Protected No Claims Bonus

A way to safeguard your no claims discount is to pay an additional amount on top of your car insurance to protect it. This means that even if you were to make a claim, your no claims bonus would stay intact.

Important information:

No claims discount protection does not protect the overall price of your insurance policy. The price of your insurance policy may increase following an accident even if you were not at fault. No claims discount protection allows you to make one or more claims before your number of no claims bonus years falls. Please see the step-back procedure for details.

Breakdown Cover

Breaking down during the course of a journey or the failure of your vehicle to start outside your home could result in the unexpected expense of paying for assistance. To avoid such cost and frustration, we recommend our Award Winning Breakdown Service offering varying levels of cover to suit your needs.

More About Modification

Any car that has additions or alterations to its standard factory specification is what the insurance industry calls a 'non standard' or modified vehicle. Modifications may include the fitting of a new performance exhaust system alloy wheels, air filter, the fitting of body kits or any tuning procedures that enhance the performance of the vehicle.

It is imperative that you tell your insurer if your car has been modified in any way. If you don't, your modified car insurance may be invalid. If in doubt, ask.

Remember, by dealing with Performance Direct, we can guarantee that you are fully covered for the best possible price.

Modified Car Insurance UK

The desire to modify your vehicle whether to increase performance or for other reasons is becoming increasingly popular, however if you have a modified car, even a simple modification, many insurers increase their premiums as though it were a fully customised vehicle built for racing.

Performance Direct understands that the desire for an upgraded version of your car is perfectly reasonable. In fact, this has been occurring all throughout automotive history.

Your vehicle’s performance will not always be affected by an aesthetic modification and other modifications affect a car’s performance in different ways. We take this into consideration when providing a modified car insurance quote and do not simply issue standard policies.

Even if modifications have been made to an automobile engine Performance Direct has the experience of providing modified insurance quotes on a car by car basis.
