the Price of a Year of Car Insurance

This was comprehensive insurance in addition to liability insurance for a mature driver with no penalty points and a 25 year no claims history. It also included a discount for having taken a mature drivers improvement course. It also included collision cover, a necessity as I commute in a high traffic density area. It also included membership of a road recovery service for three months with an option to renew this if you chose to do so.

The quote was provided quickly via an online service, which allowed me to accsess and print off policy documents whenever and however many times I wanted. The policy was also active immediately after having purchased it and I could even print off my own cards. I found this a generally hassle free and pleasant experience, despite the fact I was changing provider, which I was expecting to cause problems.

I would recommend finding a company that has good customer services as well as reasonable prices. Be very clear about what your policy will and will not cover. Check if their are special offers that suit your circumstances e.g. claim free years, extra relevant qualifications, female drivers. Also look for firms that offer renewal bonuses.
