Cutting the cost of your car insurance
To many people car insurance is daylight robbery in many ways, you cannot get away without it, the premiums keep rising and more often than not you do not receive the amount you thought your car was insured for in the event of an accident. So how can you reduce your car insurance while retaining the cover that is applicable to you?
There are many ways to reduce you cover which include :-
Travelling fewer miles - many car insurance policies these days will give you a reduction if you travel under a certain amount of miles. However, they will not hand this saving to you, you need to ask!
Security - the simple introduction of a car alarm can and does affect the level of your premiums and offers you the chance to reduce them. The amount may not be massive but it all adds up!
Smaller car - Many people who drive larger cars will have seen their insurance go through the roof over the last couple of years. Driving a smaller car will not only save you petrol but it will be cheaper to insure - unfortunately where you have a family this may not always be possible.
