Car Insurance - Simple Tips

In order to save some money on your car insurance it is important to shop around and compare different insurers before making a decision. By using moneysupermarket.com's comparison tool, you can make finding the perfect insurance simple.

In order to keep the cost of your insurance premium down take note of these handy tips:

  • Building up a no claims bonus can significantly reduce the cost of your premium. Statistically, by building up five years of no claims you could reduce your insurance cost by 60- 70% depending on your insurer.
  • Higher your voluntary excess limit.
  • Opt to go fully comprehensive if possible. This means that in the event of an accident where you damage your own vehicle only, your insurer will pay out to mend the damage.
  • By opting for third party, fire and theft cover you will make a saving. This works out cheaper than fully comprehensive cover, but does mean that your company will not pay out for damage caused by your own error.
  • If you have just passed your driving test, research into whether it's worth completing the Pass Plus training programme to get car insurance discounts. Not all companies give discounts for Pass Plus, but it is becoming more and more popular. By taking this course you could save up to 10% on your car insurance policy.
