Saga car insurance policy details

Saga exclusively provides car insurance for people over 50, with no upper age limit. They offer a selection of car insurance policies and types. Not all policies and types are available through our site, so the exact levels of cover and benefits may vary. Before buying car insurance, we recommend checking the cover and benefits.

Saga offers three levels of comprehensive cover:

Saga Plus

Sage Plus is the highest level of cover, and includes a range of additional features:

  • 3-year fixed price, so you’ll pay the same at your next two renewals provided nothing has changed with your policy.
  • Legal protection covers legal costs incurred following an accident that wasn't your fault.
  • Onward taxi if your car is damaged following an accident
  • Medical treatment following an accident for up to £1 million.
  • Key protection for up to £2,500 per claim.

 

Saga Select

Saga Select is a comprehensive policy that includes cover for:

  • Protected no-claims bonus (NCB) as standard if you have four or more years NCB
  • Vandalism promise which means you won't lose your NCB if you make a claim for damage caused by vandals.
  • Misfuelling cover for accidentally filling your car with the wrong fuel.

Saga Standard

Saga Standard is a comprehensive policy available through comparison websites and includes:

  • Cover up to 90 days per policy year for driving in 35+ European countries with the same level of cover as in the UK.
  • Uninsured driver promise – if you’re hit by an uninsured driver your excess is returned and your no-claims-bonus isn’t affected if the accident’s not your fault and you get the other vehicle’s details.
  • Repairs and replacements to windscreens, windows and sunroofs. Windscreen excesses apply but claims won’t affect your no-claims-bonus.
  • A guaranteed courtesy car if yours is being repaired after an accident in the UK by a Saga-approved repairer.

     

Saga car insurance optional extras

There are a range of extras that you can add to your insurance policy for a cost. Some of these may be included as standard depending on the level of cover you choose. However, they can be worth considering if they aren’t already included in your cover:

  • Key protection – cover up to £2,500 per claim. You won't have to pay an excess and your NCB won't be affected.
  • Protected NCB – this is included as standard with Saga Plus, and Saga Select. It's optional for Saga Standard policies.
  • Breakdown cover with 5 levels of cover to choose from.
  • Increased personal accident cover of £150,000 for serious injuries or accidental death.
  • Replacement car extension to get a courtesy car if yours is stolen or written off.
