Insurance

SOGO are pleased to be able to offer fully comprehensive insurance, subject to approval*, by way of our Fleet Motor Insurance Policy.  This is available on vehicles through our Flexible Lease program to individuals, and businesses, across the majority of the vehicles we have available, and can even be flexed based on your monthly mileage needs.

It’s competitively priced to offer you a hassle-free Flexible Lease experience, and can even move with you should you decide to swap cars with us too.  This means that once you’ve been approved you can have your Lease and Insurance costs through one convenient invoice.

Example Pricing can be found below:

Please note that we do not sell Motor Insurance policies, SOGO Mobility Limited are the policyholder and we simply add you as a named driver for the vehicle you are leasing only, therefore the policy will not be in your name but in the name of SOGO Mobility Limited.
