You should always check the small print on your car hire agreement. When hiring a car abroad, should there be any damage to the vehicle, under most car rental agreements you are still liable for the first portion of the repair or replacement costs otherwise known as the Excess or Collision Damage Waiver (CDW), which can vary from €100 up to €2,000. Our unique car hire excess policy, which is arranged through leading worldwide insurer Mondial Assistance, covers adults between 21 Years and 84 Years and includes Personal Possessions Cover, Windscreen/Glass, Tyres, Wheels, Roof and Undercarriage. In addition our policy also includes personal possessions and rental key cover.
Most car hire companies will also offer excess cover but this can work out quite as quite an expensive and unexpected addition to your car hire cost. With Respectinsurance.ie you can buy car hire excess insurance from as little as €2.99 per day covering up to 180 consecutive days. Or for cover all year round, our Annual policy is great value at €44.99 with unlimited rentals up to 62 days any one rental.
