Want to get cheaper car insurance, read on to find out more.

By law, car owners in the UK must have a valid up-to-date car insurance policy when driving a vehicle on public roads. This is to insure against your liability for injuring other people, including passengers, and for damage to other people’s property resulting from for instance a road accident or incident.

When shopping around for a better deal on your car insurance, the Internet is a great place to start. Price competition has been spurred by the arrival of cut-price entrants, resulting in lower premiums and cheaper car insurance.

The most popular types of policy are ‘Fully Comprehensive’ and ‘Third Party Fire and Theft’ and ‘Third Party Only’. If the trade value of your vehicle is not high then it may be worth down-grading your cover.

These tips can often result in cheaper car insurance:

• Buy Online: Some insurers offer you percentage discounts for buying your motor insurance online.
• No Claims Bonus: A personal discount offered for driving claim free during the period of insurance.
• Parking: if you can, park your car in a locked garage overnight and during the day.
• Alarm: Guard against theft by fitting an approved alarm and immobiliser.
• Mileage: Check to see if you are paying extra for miles you are not covering in your car.
• Excess: Opting to pay a higher excess can lower your premium.
• Optional Cover: Only select extra’s and perks, if essential.
