Motor Insurance

Motor Insurance protects your vehicle with tailored cover in the event it is involved in a road traffic accident, is stolen or damaged.

Your Sheridan Insurances broker can take the hassle out of finding Motor Insurance by locating the most competitively priced and suitable policies on the market and talk you through the criteria that needs consideration before making your decision. Our professional team of brokers have years of experience dealing with claims fairly, efficiently and promptly, to give you the confidence that if something goes wrong, you can rely on your cover to take care of your needs.

When taking out Motor Insurance, your insurer will likely want to know:

  • your occupation
  • the value of the car
  • the car’s approximate annual mileage
  • whether there might be any changes in your car insurance requirements in the near future, such as a change of vehicle, or the inclusion of a young driver
  • whether you or any named driver have acquired any penalty points over the last 12 months
  • whether you or any named driver have been involved in a recent accident or have any motor prosecution pending.
  • whether you need a 3rd party indemnified on your motor policy

Your Sheridan Insurance broker will also need:

  • a copy (front and back) of your Driving License, and also for any other named drivers
  • your No Claims Bonus Certificate
  • a letter of driving experience if applicable (if you don’t have a No Claims Bonus in your own name but have been a named driver on someone else’s policy, they can request a letter of driving experience from their insurer on your behalf).

Types of motor insurance we offer…

Car Insurance

If you are searching for car insurance, Sheridan Insurances can provide you with a range of options to choose from. A tailored car insurance policy means you can achieve the right cover for your circumstances, and pay only for what you need.

Most insurers offer three types of car insurance – Third Party Only, Third Party, Fire and Theft, and Comprehensive Insurance.

Third Party Only protects you from claims made as a result of damage or injury sustained by a third party that was caused by your vehicle.

Third Party, Fire and Theft provides additional coverage for loss or damage caused by fire, self-ignition, lightning, explosion or by theft or attempted theft.

Comprehensive insurance provides you with peace-of-mind that should your car be lost or stolen, suffer accidental damage, or injure someone, that you are covered for the cost of legal fees, compensation and replacement or repairs to your vehicle and any others involved in the incident. The policy may also provide cover for extra benefits such as fire brigade charges, trailer cover, key cover, emergency assistance and windscreen cover. All policies have terms and conditions and these are outlined in your policy documentation, schedule and certificate of insurance

SUV Insurance

With their stylish designs and roomy features, SUVs are becoming more and more popular on Irish roads. Their size does mean however they can do more damage, and cost more to repair than an average saloon car, if they are involved in a road incident. The good news is that Sheridan Insurances has a strong track record for securing competitively priced insurance policies for SUVs.

SUV Insurance is available for a wide range of SUVs including Land Rover Discovery, Hyundai Tucson, Peugeot 3008, Volkswagen Tiguan, Audi Q7, BMW X7, Kia Sorento, Mercedes GLS, and many more.

Like insurance for saloons, you can choose to cover your SUV with either Third Party Only, Third Party, Fire and Theft or Comprehensive Insurance.

To find out more about SUV Insurance speak to your Sheridan Insurances broker.

Tractor Insurance

Tractor Insurance provides protection for your tractor for risks such as fire, theft and damage sustained in an accident. Typically, policies will cover your tractornot only when it is in use on your property but also on the road. There are three different types of tractor insurance that are available to tractor owners:

  • Third Party Only which protects you if someone makes a claim resulting from damage or injury caused by your tractor.
  • Third Party, Fire and Theft protects you against claims made by someone else, plus protection for your own tractor in the event of fire or theft.
  • Comprehensive insurance provides Third Party, Fire and Theft plus the added peace-of-mind that your tractor is covered if it is damaged or lost due to an accident or vandalism.

Most policies include terms and conditions. These are outlined in your policy documentation, schedule and certificate of insurance

Generally, Tractor Insurance provides cover for:

  • your tractor
  • personal items and spare parts you have inside the tractor
  • vintage tractors 25 years of age or more.

Attachments such as front-end loaders are high value and need to be specified. There is no limit on the number of attachments you can have insured

Van Insurance

Van Insurance can provide cover for your van when you are using it for personal use, whether that be for social, domestic or pleasure as well as commercial use for commuting to work. Van Insurance typically offers three different types of cover:

  • Third Party Only which provides cover for a claim that is brought against you because your van has caused an injury or damage to a third party’s property.
  • Third Party, Fire and Theft which covers you for third party claims and also if your van is stolen or damaged due to fire, theft or attempted theft.
  • Comprehensive insurance protects you against third party personal injury claims, third party material damage claims, fire and theft, legal fees, accidental damage and replacement or repairs to your vehicle. The policy may also provide cover for additional benefits such as protected bonus, trailer cover and windscreen cover.

All policies have terms and conditions and these are outlined in your policy documentation, schedule and certificate of insurance

Motor Insurance FAQs

We want to make sure you know exactly what motor insurance from Sheridan Insurances protects you for.
Take a look at our FAQs or talk to one of our brokers.

Did you know?
  • 80% of people looking for a car insurance quote make their decision based on price alone. However, understanding the terms and conditions is really important and can make a big difference in the event of a claim.
  • Vehicles imported from the mainland UK to Ireland are only insurable once they are on the boat. That means the vehicle cannot be insured while on UK roads travelling to the boat. The best solution is to have the seller transport it to the boat independently.
Top Tip - Renewals

When your motor insurance renewal letter arrives, use this as your price guide for this type of cover. Additional benefits or additional drivers can increase the policy premium.

Top Tip – Lower your costs

Check if adding a named driver to your policy will reduce your costs. Adding an older and more experienced driver to your policy can actually decrease the cost of your overall insurance.

Top Tip – Do you really need the optional extras?

Dropping optional extras can reduce your premium. Items such as breakdown assistance, windscreen cover and no claims bonus protection all add up. Discuss your requirements with your broker.

Lifesavers – With 110% professionalism at all times, we were provided with much needed support and guidance under difficult circumstances, with a very tight deadline. Without the team in Sheridan Insurance’s diligence and effort, going the extra mile on more than one occasion, we can honestly say we wouldn’t have the secure future we can now look forward to. We would recommend Sheridan Insuances to anyone looking for any type of insurance. Hands down the best decision you'll make! Thank you Audrey, Brian and Niall. Richard & Maria Leonard

My name is Philip Sheridan Sides.I was buying a van on done deal when I saw the advert for Sheridan insurance. The playright Richard Brinsley Sheridan was one of my ancestors and that is where the Sheridan in my full name as we had the same name. \I rang the office for a quote and was put through to broker Kelly Crowe. My first premium was high as I had been with Dolman Insurance who specialise in Camper vans and my no claims on the camper van was not able to transfer. This is something I believe the insurance industry should change as it is unfair on camper van drivers who like myself at the tie use the vehicle as their only method of transport.This was seven years ago. I am a very busy free lance photographer, musician and I run an NGO called Whistles for Refugees.The NGO collects unwanted tents and sleeping bags at festivals, thus saving them from landfill thus turning this landfill into aid for the most vulnerable people on this planet fleeing the horrors of ISIS. Whistles for Refugees also brings whistles out to refugee camps, music is healing and the Irish tin whistle gives the opportunity for the refugees to learn and play Irish music with an instrument that is light portable, inexpensive to buy and relatively easy to learn.Sheridan Insurance are currently researching for an underwriter to provide public liability insurance for our NGO so that our volunteers are covered should they get pricked by a needle while cleaning out tents at festivals or any other risk involved in our work.Broker Kelly Crowe has been amazing at her job. From the very beginning Kelly was able to organise a quote, with my line of work and my bad luck with vehicles I am often having to rent replacement cars to make sure I get to my commissions safely and punctually. I am never 5 mins from getting my insurance transferred to keep my rental costs lower. I needed a copy of my no claims bonus to get insured on my partners camper van and this was emailed to me within 5 mins of my request, even though this was with a different firm!I also run a tour business bringing clients on adventures with sea kayaking and photography. Once again my broker was able to produce a policy that was affordable and organised with minimal fuss in minimal time.For quality, price and especially (what I believe is the most important in business) service, Sheridan insurance is second to none.I could not recommend Sheridan Insurance and my broker Kelly Crowe enough.

We all hate shopping for insurance but the brokers at Sheridans do all the legwork for you and find the best deal and the cover you actually need - plus they are easy to deal with. You get assigned a broker and you can actually speak to a real human being. Great idea.
