You Can Have The Lowest Auto Insurance

At the time of acquiring a new or used car we all want the lowest auto insurance but not the lowest benefits. In these tight financial times it is even more necessary to cut costs but not quality. So here are some great tips on how to obtain cheap auto insurance quotes.

It begins with choosing the sort of vehicle that has reputation for low-level repairs and of course low mileage/kilometers. This gives the insuring company the chance to offer you a cheaper policy. If you are a new driver and young why not take the policy out in your parents name? Most companies will give a deduction for joint policies held in one name.

There are standard prices set by the companies however there are companies which give great service and offer the lowest auto insurance rates especially if you have selected a vehicle that fits in their “safer” range of car. These insurance companies have research on the vehicles that seem to be accident-prone or require greater expense if in an accident. So if you have done your homework and selected a vehicle that fits in their lowest auto insurance bracket then you have a winner because its not a once only payment its every year from here on.

The driver’s age is relevant to insurance companies when they are offering a lowest auto insurance rate. If an 18 year old takes on a fast sports car the premium will obviously be high. However, as previously stated, if the 18-year-old has chosen a vehicle that is in the insurance companies low risk category then the age, while a factor, can be modified accordingly with the offer of a cheaper policy

Lastly you should check with the insuring body before purchasing a vehicle and ask them for their requirements that would make you eligible for the lowest auto insurance they can offer. It can also be added if the young driver is prepared to undergo defensive driving courses and has the certification to show then that too may gain some extra deduction in annual policy payments.

Hey all,

My Dad wants me to sell my brand new dodge charger srt8 because the insurance agency is asking for an extra $1000 dollars. I have never had a speeding ticket and my record is spotless. But they’re still charging that much extra. I live in an area where the teenagers get into a lot of car accidents when they have sports cars. could this be a reason? Also I’m 17 if that could help you in any way.

If I really have to return or sell it, I’ll do that and get another car but for those of you who are teenagers or have teenagers, what is your insurance cost? What is the best insurance to insure your teens car?

Thanks in advance

*CheerZ*

What someone else pays makes no difference whatever. At 17, you can’t buy your own insurance, since you’re not old enough to enter into a contract. Yes, your age and location are the main factors in that premium, along with the driving record of all drivers in that age/location group; the companies can "tailor" the premium a bit for individual drivers, buy they have to go by the numbers for the group. Also remember that everything insurance pays for has gone up a lot recently, while the companies’ investments have tanked, so the extra money has to come from somewhere, and you’re it! I really don’t blame dad, so you’d be wise to do what he wishes. It’s great to have the chick magnet, but that’s a lot of money for looking cool.

What is the legal status of transsexuals with respect to motor insurance in the UK? Does an MTF transsexual (i.e., a woman born a boy) still have to pay men’s (exorbitant) insurance prices even after the Operation, or does she qualify for cheaper car insurance?

Sure most motor insurance companies will happily write you a policy in a female name, but while you are pre-op they are highly unlikely to adjust premium / risk in your favour ….

…. basically you remain "male" in actuarial terms (my own UK experience following honest disclosure ) – and since when did oral estrogens really affect your driving style / cut aggression ? – just made me a bit crazier a driver than I was already, cooler headed yes, more relaxed, but faster !

If you fail to tell your "past" gender to your insurers they have valid and legal reasons to decline any claim, certainly if you don’t have a "Gender Recognition Certificate".

Of course a broker might tell you that you’re getting "female rates" to get your business, and absorb it in comission or profits …. but the cheapest insurers tend to be inflexible.

Even if you are post-op in the UK, and with GRC & amended Birth Certificate, insurance remains effectively outwith the legal UK GRA framework.

If you fail to disclose your past history of your life as a "male" to life assurers or medical insurers you absolutely invalidate your policy …. after all for a late transitioner (40 – 60’s) you do not suddenly accquire the longevity, better cardiac health, etc. of a born female, indeed HRT might cause serious added health issues ….

…. or suddenly become a calmer driver (esp. for younger TS women) !

Sure post-op & post-GRC you have good legal grounds for not revealing "past gender" when applying for new motor insurance, but I know insurance companies were "stick in the mud" when the Gender Recognition Act was being put together insistent that one’s history influences risk. Not sure if the insurance companies would challenge, or whether its ever been tested in the courts.

And as for health and life insurance policies forget it !

For health, medical, travel, life policies you usually have to disclose details that would "give the game away" anyway, like past hospitalizations, surgeries, current medication, indeed any significant factor that might affect your risk whether specifically asked or not (the delights of smallprint) !

So GRC does not confer automatic insurance rights, even when the "Provision of Goods & Services Act" is amended to include us …. one of the few areas where TS equality in UK law remains currently unresolved.
