The Magnificent Seven - Quick Tips for Cheaper Car Insurance

by Jason Hulott

Getting the best deal on your car insurance does not mean that you have to forgo the security of being covered by a well-known insurer. There are many ways of tailoring the policy and considerations you need to make to provide the cover you need at a lower cost.

1 Excess

All policies have an ‘excess’ – that is the amount you will have to fork out if you make a claim on your car insurance. It can range from £50 upwards. However, choose to pay an additional excess on top of the compulsory excess and you’ll pay a lower premium.

2 Residence

If your car is garaged overnight or on your driveway, you’ll pay a lower premium than if it was left in the street. And those who live in the country will pay less than someone living in an inner-city.

3 Grouping

While you may be able to pick up a second hand Porsche at a bargain price, you’ll more than make up it for the cost of insurance. Check out the group - the lower the group number, the lower the premium.

4 Drivers

Limit the number of drivers on your vehicle and you’ll get a better deal on your insurance.

5 Age, sex and occupation

These can all have an effect on your premiums, as can part-time jobs.

6 Modifications and security

A modified car will attract higher premiums. Check the security levels on your car: immobilisers, a steering lock, and a detachable stereo could help reduce your premiums.

7 Shop Around

Don’t automatically accept your current insurers’ quote at renewal time – shop around. Use our directory of car insurance providers to find the best deal for you.
