Default Dubai car insurance

Can anyone recommend a car insurer for Dubai registered vehicle?

So far, I know of Axa, RSA and Gargash offering car insurance. Any more suggestions appreciated.

I have used Royal Sun Alliance for some years and before that another British company which withdrew from the UAE market.

I feel insurance, for cars at least, is very much a case of you get what you pay for!!!

I've been an AXA/Norwich Union customer for 5 years without issue, and with 2 or 3 claims. They also have a good roadside assist program and coverage in Oman. I've never searched too hard, but their price was at least cheaper than RSA.

Gargash are an insurance broker...they broker Axa and RSA and a number of other car insurers...why not ask them for quotes and save yourself the shopping around? You'll pay the same anyways...

Just renewed insurance & reg today - used AXA. They were the same price +/- 100 Dhs as a couple of others I got quotes from and were very efficient and easy to deal with. THe main reason I used them was that they have an office in JAFZA near where I work and as mentioned earlier, they do Oman insurance + road side assistance.
