TrueCover insures your vehicle for an amount you set, known as the agreed value. Repairs are done at a shop chosen by the insurer. You'll pay a reduced excess for window damage (other policies offer nil excess). TrueCover pushes the definition of young driver to the extremes, imposing a hefty $1000 additional excess for any driver under 35.
