If your car was damaged in an accident that wasn't your fault, Upper Star puts you in a like-for-like replacement vehicle while yours is off the road — with zero out-of-pocket cost. We recover everything from the at-fault party's insurer.
You've already had a bad day. Getting back on the road shouldn't add to it.
No bond, no daily rate, no excess. The at-fault party's insurer covers the cost of your replacement.
Drive something equivalent to your own car — not a downgrade. Prestige and commercial matches available.
Because the cost is recovered from the other driver, your own policy and no-claim bonus stay intact.
From assessment to recovery, our team manages the claim with the at-fault insurer so you don't have to.
You're involved in a collision that wasn't your fault and your car is damaged or undriveable.

Correct — provided you weren't at fault and the claim is successful, the hire cost is recovered from the at-fault party's insurer. You don't pay a deposit, daily rate or excess. Eligibility is confirmed before you take the vehicle.
No. Because the replacement cost is pursued against the at-fault driver, you don't need to claim on your own policy for the hire vehicle, so your premium and no-claim bonus aren't affected by it.
A vehicle equivalent to your own — like-for-like. If you drive a family SUV you get an SUV; if you drive a prestige European car, we match that class. Subject to fleet availability at the time.
Often the same day once eligibility is confirmed. We can deliver to your home, work, or directly to your repairer.
Generally for the reasonable period your own car is off the road being assessed and repaired. We coordinate timing with your repairer.
Just call us and describe the accident. We'll assess it on the spot at no cost and with no obligation. If you don't qualify, we'll tell you straight away.
Fill in your details and we'll call you back, or reach us directly any time.
