Insurance Cover
The daily rental price shown includes our standard insurance, as required by law, and also Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) which provides cover against repair costs relating to our vehicle in the event of any damage occurring. The hirer only pays the policy excess of €900 to €2500 (Dependant on group and model have taken). This cover excludes damage to tires, the windscreen or the oil-sump, for which the hirer remains responsible at all times. This level of insurance cover is standard with every rental and is sufficient for a hirer to legally drive the vehicle in Cyprus. Drivers have the option to increase their level of insurance cover if they so choose. Wheels and Windscreen Insurance Waiver (WWI) is offered for €6.00 per rental day, which increases the cover to include all parts of the vehicle, including tires, windscreen, and oil-sump. The policy excess still applies. This additional insurance must be selected at the start of the rental, and payment is taken locally prior to delivery of the vehicle. Alternatively, a number of protection packages are available to limit or to ZERO the liability. Drivers may choose our fully-comprehensive insurance policy, known as Full Protection (SEDW). From €12.00 per day, this option includes all the cover provided by WWI and additionally reduces the policy excess to € ZERO. Also included is of personal accident insurance (excluding Driver), underwritten by the Cyprus Hire Risk Pool. All additional insurances or protection packages must be selected at the start of the rental.

Insurance Limitations 

Insurance limitations are clearly shown on the reverse of every rental contract issued.
