When it comes to short term car insurance, you really need to have either a full UK driving licence or a European one. For any other countries, most insurers will not provide any cover. There may be several reasons for this but the most important is that legislation in other countries are different from those of UK/EU. Whether it's an african or australian licence, it's still going to be tough to find insurance cover on a temporary basis. If it was for an annual contract, then it would be different.

Is your daughter not able to extend her policy back in South Africa to allow her to drive your car here in the UK?
