Key features

It really is all in the name with the Pay As You Drive Car Insurance policy. Real Insurance will calculate your premium based on the the kilometres you plan to drive each year. You will have the opportunity to adjust that figure throughout the year if you think you’re going to exceed it, but it'll bump up your premium. That means you only pay for the driving you actually do, making it a great option for owners who don’t drive to work or only use their car on weekends but still want to enjoy the benefits of comprehensive cover.

If your car is written off, Real Insurance will replace it with a brand new model if it’s less than two years old, otherwise it will be covered at an agreed price or at market value. And if your vehicle is stolen, Real Insurance will provide you with a rental car (maximum value of $70 a day) for up to two weeks.

The possessions inside your car will also be covered under the Pay As You Drive Car Insurance policy, with up to $500 personal property cover, up to $1,000 for stolen keys and up to $500 for a baby capsule or seats.

Worried about breaking down? Real Insurance offers roadside assistance as an optional extra and you’ll be able to access their 24/7 claims service. Plus they’ll pay up to $500 towards any of your travel or accommodation costs if you’re stranded more than 200km from home.
