While this is an unhelpful reply, i am curious...why does this matter? More cover the merrier surely as long as the price is agreeable?
Wonder if I can get a cheaper car insurance if I don’t drive outside my street.
They provide the standard minimum EU requirementsI don't think Esure include European cover as standard, or if they do it's only third party cover.
I don't want to open a can of political worms but as of this moment Britain is a member of the EU - so you are going to be hard pressed to find a car insurer that doesn't give you EU cover as standard!
Post-Brexit it will be another matter - depending on whether we leave with a deal or without one!
Also, what is a "diktat"?
EU cover is actually compulsory on any insurance policy sold in an EU member state. Although it's the minimum required which varies from state to state.

Yep,Yep, but a "no deal" Brexit will change all that - I've had a 'mare this week with a few customers being abroad over the 29th March deadline and having to faff about getting a Green Card sorted!
Not really,That means we'll have loads of people driving around Europe un-insured without realising probably. Oh well, at least they won't be able to chase you for speeding fines anymore

I'm going away the day after the new "exit date", as my insurer only does 3rd party by default I would have had to sort it regardless, but it was pretty painless and the green card arrived within 4 days. My parents are going over to Ireland soon too and theirs was even easier, their insurer now has an online form in the account section, fill in details and it's issued automatically
