Buying a new or used vehicle represents a major investment, so it’s wise to protect your vehicle against the sudden or unforeseen happening of mechanical or electrical failure.
The fact is, motor vehicles do break down from time to time and, whilst you don’t expect it to happen to your vehicle, it’s reassuring to know that Provident Insurance has a policy to help protect you against the inconvenience and the costs of repair.
