Discounts for Thatcham-approved security features

If you’re a young driver facing high insurance premiums or you own a model that’s prone to being stolen, installing Thatcham-approved trackers, immobilisers and alarms can help prevent your car from being stolen, which can reduce your premiums. We also offer limited mileage discounts and more – the more we know about your circumstances, the more we can help!

Up to £100,000 of legal cover included on every policy

Our legal cover is a standard feature in our VW Golf Insurance policies. So if you are ever involved in an accident that isn’t your fault, it can help you recover any out of pocket expenses afterwards and possibly look to offer a hire vehicle as well as other benefits.

European cover for up to 90 days can be included (depending on policy)

We offer free cover in Europe as standard, so you can take your Golf on a banger rally or a tour. The number of days you can spend in the EU varies depending on the policy, so let us know if this is of interest to you and we can help.

Wide range of optional extras

We have plenty of optional extras to choose from, including UK and EU breakdown cover for models of all ages. We also offer cover for misfuelling, keycare, excess protection and windscreens. Just let us know which extra benefits you’d like to add to your policy and we can get this sorted.

Frequently asked questions

How much is VW Golf insurance?

As Golfs come in so many varieties, the cost of your insurance will vary considerably depending on which model you own. Many other factors are taken into consideration too, including your driving experience, any no claims bonus (NCB) you’ve built up and how you use your car.

Rest assured that we work with dozens of underwriters, so can compare quotes to find the best cover for you and your wallet.

Is a VW Golf expensive to insure?

This really depends. Golfs are incredibly reliable so they can be an affordable runaround, especially if you opt for a classic or base 1.0L or 1.5L model.

That being said, if you’re a young driver who hasn’t built up a solid driving history, or you’ve opted for a hot hatch model, you might find that your premium is higher. Thankfully, we work a little differently. 

We understand that many performance car owners are enthusiasts who will take special care of their vehicle. As a result, we can help you find an affordable VW Golf insurance policy.

Likewise, we offer curfew-free black box insurance to young drivers to help you prove you’re a safe driver. Our cover can help reduce your renewal premium by up to 60%.

What kinds of modifications can you cover?

At Sterling, we pretty much cover any and every legal modification you can think of. From performance upgrades like lowered suspension, performance tyres and ECU remaps to cosmetic upgrades such as window tints, spoilers and body kits. Just let us know if you’ve installed any aftermarket mods.

What insurance group is a VW Golf in?

The insurance group your VW Golf falls under will depend entirely on the model you choose. Most of these vehicles fall between insurance groups nine to 39, with classic and lower-powered models found in lower bands and sportier models in higher groups.

It’s important to remember that insurance groups aren’t the only consideration taken into account when you get a quote. If you have your heart set on a particular model, speak with us for a quote to get an idea of how much your cover will be.
