What influences your insurance rates?

Insurance premiums on a 2008 can vary widely subject to many criteria. Taken into consideration are:

• More performance equals higher cost
• Any accidents you may have
• Multiple policies can save money
• Pleasure use vs. commuting use
• Special coverage such as replacement cost
• Whether or not you have claims
• No coverage lapses saves money
• Whether you rent or own your home

One important consideration that helps determine your rates is the age of the vehicle. A newer vehicle cost more compared to older models so the payout to repair can inflate annual premiums. Conversely, more recent vehicles have more advanced features such as a collision avoidance system, a telematics system, dual-stage airbags, and pedestrian detection which can provide discounts that lower premiums.

Liability coverage - 2008 liability coverage will cover damages or injuries you inflict on people or other property in an accident. Liability coverage pays for things such as emergency aid, pain and suffering, and medical services. This coverage is usually fairly inexpensive so buy higher limits if possible.

Collision - Collision insurance will pay to fix damage to your resulting from a collision with an object or car. You will need to pay your deductible and the rest of the damage will be paid by collision coverage. Collision coverage for your 2008 can be pricey, so consider removing coverage from lower value vehicles. Another option is to increase the deductible to bring the cost down.

Comprehensive coverage - This coverage will pay to fix damage that is not covered by collision coverage. You need to pay your deductible first then your comprehensive coverage will pay. The maximum payout you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the market value of your vehicle, so if the vehicle is not worth much it's not worth carrying full coverage.

UM/UIM Coverage - This gives you protection from other drivers when they are uninsured or don't have enough coverage. Since many drivers only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, it doesn't take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. So UM/UIM coverage is very important.

Medical payments coverage and PIP - Personal Injury Protection (PIP) and medical payments coverage reimburse you for expenses like doctor visits, EMT expenses, and X-ray expenses. The coverages can be used in conjunction with a health insurance policy or if you do not have health coverage. Personal injury protection coverage is only offered in select states but can be used in place of medical payments coverage.
