Frequently Asked Questions
Comprehensive car insurance typically costs 3–4% of vehicle value annually. A R250,000 car costs approximately R625–R830/month. Factors like age, area, and no-claim bonus significantly affect the rate.
A no-claim bonus is a discount for each claim-free year. Typically 5% per year in SA, capped at 25% after 5 years. Making a claim usually resets or reduces your NCB.
Comprehensive is best for newer, more valuable vehicles. For older vehicles worth less than R80,000-R100,000, third-party fire and theft may be sufficient. If your car is financed, the bank typically requires comprehensive cover.
