Yes. Quotations can normally be obtained before the purchase date, using the expected vehicle and policy-start details.

How insurers commonly treat this

• Quotes can change or expire before purchase.
• The exact registration and vehicle specification can alter the premium.
• The final policy documents need to show a start date and time that correspond with the intended use of the vehicle.

What the quotation may ask for

Quotation forms use the information supplied to determine which insurers can offer cover and on what terms. Where the available answer does not accurately describe the circumstances, the insurer or comparison provider can clarify how that information is recorded.
