Tips - Car Insurance

Shop around, or pay the price
	When it comes to car insurance, quotes can vary dramatically. Be sure to shop around for the best deal, but remember that it's also important to consider claims service. It's no good having dirt cheap car insurance if the insurer is difficult to deal with when the time comes to make a claim. Ask around about other people's experiences with making claims.
Be careful with car insurance extras
	Car insurance extras cost more, so only select the extras you think you'll need. Otherwise, you could end up paying for a service that you'll never use. Some insurers allow you to remove certain extras from your policy in return for a reduced premium. Check with your car insurer to see if they allow this.
