Car dealer group JCT600 has become the latest
signee to Aviva’s Driveaway insurance package offered through
information services provider Experian.
Simon Barrass, group finance and insurance
director at JCT600, which has 48 sites across the North of England,
said the company was impressed by the “flexibility” of the new
scheme, which aims to offer customers the fastest comprehensive car
cover available.

Barrass said Experian had long been the
“supplier of choice for provenance and vehicle mileage checks” for
JCT600, who will offer the service from 30 June.
Experian announced the deal with Aviva in
March, signed its first top-20 dealership to the insurance package
at the end of the month and is also in partnership with Trader
Media Group to distribute the package to the independent dealer
market.
The agreement followed news in February that
Black Horse, Lloyds Banking Group’s motor finance provider,
would launch a minor-damage repair insurance service
called DriveSure to sit beside its GAP and warranty
services.
Beside its credit checking facility used in
the car finance industry, Experian has a solidified position in
auto insurance including providing services to insurance companies
that it claims cover 70% of the market and maintaining the Motor
Insurance Database (of 26 million claims) on behalf of the Motor
Insurers’ Bureau.
