I'm hiring a car in Sicily at the end of the month. They want to charge me €17 per day for CDW cover. In the UK you can buy CDW cover for any car hire for about €5 per day (see link) but you must hold a UK driving license. I surrounded mine for a Swedish one last year.
Are there any Swedish companies that offer similar policies? |

Check with the car hire company - some include CDW automaticallly as in Sweden this has to be included in the price
I one had this argument with Alamo hire cars at Heathrow London - CDW seemed to be a nice little earner for the office there - yet my Swedish contract stated clearly that it was included in the (very cheap) price |

Thanks Puffin.
I found a UK insurer that offers a blanket annual policy for about £39 for all EU citizens. As you state most car hire companies see this a method of increasing their margins., https://www.questor-insurance.co.uk/faq.aspx |
