You know that when you buy a new car, its value will immediately go down as soon as you drive it off the store. All of a sudden, the car that you financed for $25,000 may now be worth only $20,000.

So if you could imagine that eventually you still have the car, but its value is considerably less than what you still owe. This is where gap insurance will come in. A gap policy covers the difference between what you owe the finance company and the value of the car. These gap policies are often required when you lease a car, and also helpful for the first couple of years after buying a new car.

Young drivers can save money in car insurance by being named as permanent or temporary drivers on their parents’ policies. Also, insurers often offer discounts when you buy insurance policies online – usually 10% of the premium price. It also pays if you shop around and use an online comparison website to get the best deal on the market that is available to you.
Other tips would include considering theft cover or third-party fire, but always look at the fully comprehensive policies too. It is better to choose the latter if possible. However, if your car is of low value, a third party cover may be more appropriate.

Dangerous Consumer Tactic (Part 2)

Parents insure their children’s car in their own name because they want to save on premiums, but they are not aware that they could be committing insurance fraud in doing so. An insurer company has the right to decline a claim or recover costs from the child or parents themselves. Not only that, if a claim is declined, the police could treat the driver as driving uninsured, which means that he or she can be fined and receive six penalty points – this could mean an automatic ban for someone who is a newly qualified driver. It will also raise their premiums in the future since they have to declare that a claim has already been declined.

To keep the cost of car insurance down, one of the consumer tactics that a consumer often use is also known as “fronting.” This is where a person, usually a parent, will insure a car in their name and then add their child as one of the named drivers. However, if the named driver is the only driver or the main driver, then there would be some complications if ever a claim will be made.
According to the research of Zurich Insurance, they revealed that there will always be one in ten people who will buy a car for a child or a grandchild but insure it in their own name.
