Adam Kent, Cuvva's Senior Underwriting Lead and Insurance Expert, said: ‘If you're buying a car from a dealership, be warned: car insurance (usually) isn’t included! This means you absolutely must sort it yourself before driving home - even if it’s just a five minute journey. The easy solution is called drive away insurance. This is temporary cover for the period between buying the car and arranging your own full insurance. Getting into an accident on the way home with no insurance would leave you in serious trouble. Do the sensible thing and use drive away insurance.’
