It is against the law in this country to drive any kind of vehicle on the roads without insurance and this is the case whether you own the vehicle or if you’re renting/leasing.
Here at Cocoon Vehicles, when you take out a short-term car lease or vehicle subscription with us, you will need to provide your own insurance. The insurance needs to be fully-comprehensive and the person taking out the short-term car or van lease needs to be the main policyholder shown on the Insurance Certificate.
When you lease a car or van from Cocoon Vehicles, we will provide you with the Registration Number required to be able to arrange your insurance. We will require proof of insurance before the vehicle is delivered.

Before taking out a vehicle on lease, it is important to be aware of the insurance group of the vehicle you’re looking at leasing and ensure that the cost will be affordable to you.
It is important that the Insurance is in place to commence from the date that the vehicle is delivered and this must remain in place until the vehicle is returned to Cocoon Vehicles.
We recommend that you pay for an insurance policy on an annual basis if you are looking at ways to save money, this can reduce the overall amount that you will pay for the period.
On any vehicle, fully comprehensive insurance must be provided by the hirer. Fleet policies are acceptable so long as the vehicle is registered on the AskMid Insurance Database and showing as insured.When purchasing an insurance policy for your flexible vehicle, we recommend taking a 12 month policy, as these can work out much cheaper than a Short Term Insurance provider such as TempCover.
