Cheap Full Coverage Car Insurance

Do you know what it means to have full coverage car insurance? Having full coverage car insurance means you have more than just the minimum car insurance to "get by" in your state. With full coverage car insurance, you and your car are just that - fully covered and protected against anything that may happen to you or your car.

Obviously full coverage car insurance is going to cost more than the minimum car insurance requirements in your state. This is because you are covering everything. Because of the difference in cost, many car owners choose to purchase their state's minimum car insurance requirements rather than purchase a full coverage car insurance policy.

Nice solution, but it won't work for everyone. Some people, for a variety of reasons, are required to purchase full coverage car insurance.

So, how can you get cheap full coverage car insurance?

There are a couple of ways to get cheap full coverage car insurance. First, search, search, search! Don't just choose the first car insurance company you find in the yellow pages - use all available resources. This includes newspaper advertisements, classifieds, commercials, billboards, word-of-mouth, and the Internet.

Second, search for a car insurance company that offers discounts for various reasons. Some car insurance companies offer discounts for good driving records, your age, the kind of car you drive, and the number of cars on your car insurance policy. There are also insurance companies that sell more than one kind of insurance policy, and will offer you discounts if you purchase two or more insurance policies from them. For example, you may be able to get cheap full coverage car insurance if, in addition to purchasing full coverage car insurance, you also purchase a homeowner's insurance policy from the insurance company, too.

More coverage doesn't always have to mean more money. Choosing the right company and finding discounts can help you get cheap full coverage car insurance.

Insurance Research Determines the Ultimate Mid-Life Crisis Car

Recently a motor insurance company conducted some research into it's customers and was able to determine that certain age groups have an affinity to certain car types. This research was able to pigeonhole certain brands to age groupings partially because the particular age group was only able to get car insurance on that particular class of vehicle. Obviously the richer and later in life people get the more money they potentially have to spend on a car and its corresponding insurance.

With younger drivers, Fiat and Peugeot cars were most popular with the average driver age being 31 and 32. This is pretty much a given as smaller engine models such as the Fiat Punto and Peugeot 106 are popular first cars for many younger drivers and much easier to get insured on.

Minis were also popular amongst younger drivers with their average age being 33 years old too, the marketing of these vehicles tend to appeal to younger drivers too which may also contribute to the choice of vehicle.

More mature drivers choose the type of car you may already expect, being Volvos and Jaguars. One surprising statistic is that the Nissan Micra only had an average of 35, and in the motoring industry this is regarded as a car typically driven by the grey hair brigade. Larger older vehicles such as Jaguars have classic high cost parts which would cost a lot to replace and so car insurance on some of these older vehicles will be understandably higher.

Despite it's image in recent years of being the ultimate in celebrity excess, Mercedes-Benz has an average age much higher than the typical movie star and is considered to have the same age driver as the Jaguars and Volvos. This is something that stars like Britney Spears who drives a Mercedes SL500 and Jim Carrey, with a McLaren SLR, will no doubt be rather embarrassed about.

But the most obvious result from the insurance survey is what car type tops the list of the mid-life crisis crowd, the Porsche. Porsche cars like the 911, Boxster and Cayenne all have an average age of around 39. As the old saying goes, if you know you've hit your mid-life crisis when you buy a guitar, get a girlfriend half your age or buy a Porsche.

So in this research the insurance companies have found some drivers fit their stereotype but interestingly some did not. Obviously there will be some that don't follow the trend and will have a different car but more and more we are seeing people buying cars that will get them cheap car insurance as opposed to turning heads on the high street.
