How much is seven day car insurance?

How much does seven-day car insurance cost? I need to use my friend’s car for a bit, and a short-term insurance policy seems like a good call.

Seven-day car insurance
might sound like a great option but reputable insurers won’t usually offer such short-term insurance. That being said, you can often find policies for somewhere between $105 to $130. But if you’d like to make sure you’re getting a reliable policy, read these tips:
  • If you only need to use the car for a day or two, you should be covered by permissive use. That means that as long as your friend says you can use their car, you should be covered by their policy.
  • You could also buy a policy and get reimbursed for unused time. If you pay month-to-month, then your provider may refund you for any unused months.
  • Your best call might be to buy a
    non-owner policy
    , which is intended for people who need to drive but don’t have regular access to a vehicle.
