A published same-as-home benefit does not establish that your own policy purchased collision, theft or fire coverage. Check the declarations and policy edition.
The border documents
Legally required motor liability and acceptable documents must be confirmed with the destination authority and policy issuer.
No Green Card for Ireland → UK
Carry an Irish insurance certificate/disc and other relevant vehicle documents.
For UK-registered private cars, generally carry the insurance certificate, licence and vehicle registration papers. Leased and hired cars may need separate permission documents.

What this research cannot decide
Claims depend on the vehicle registration, the actual policy schedule, the identity of each driver, the territorial limits, the stated trip dates and modifications. Motorcycles, campervans and hired cars must be checked under their own applicable documents.
If you drive an EV, ask separately about charging equipment, battery damage and recovery after a charging failure. No EV-specific benefit is inferred from these pages.
