Common questions
What does comprehensive car insurance cover?
Comprehensive car insurance covers damage to your own vehicle (from accidents, theft, fire, and weather events) as well as damage to other people's vehicles or property. It is the most complete level of cover available.
How can I lower my car insurance premium?
Common ways to reduce your premium include increasing your excess, limiting who is listed as a driver, choosing a car with lower repair costs, parking in a secure location, and comparing multiple insurers before renewal.
Is it worth comparing car insurance every year?
Yes. Insurers often increase premiums at renewal, and loyalty doesn't always translate to a better rate. A quick check each year can identify whether you're still on a competitive price.
