Compare quotes for car insurance

There are several ways to shop for car insurance, but there is one way that is less time-consuming than others. You can waste a few hours (or days) talking to agents in your area, or you could save time and use online quotes to get pricing more quickly.

The majority of car insurance companies belong to an insurance system where prospective buyers send in one quote, and each company returns a rated price based on that information. This system prevents you from having to do quote requests for each company.

The only drawback to using this type of system is you cannot specify which companies to get pricing from. So if you prefer to pick individual companies to compare, we have assembled a list of car insurance companies in your area. Click to view list.

How you compare quotes is your choice, just try to keep equivalent coverages and limits on every quote you get. If you use different values for each quote it’s impossible to determine the best price for your Volkswagen Rabbit.

Find discounts to get cheap insurance coverage rates

Insurance coverage is expensive, but there may be some discounts to help bring down the price. Some trigger automatically when you purchase, but a few must be manually applied before you get the savings.

  • Discounts for Multiple Vehicles – Insuring more than one vehicle on a single policy can get a discount on all vehicles.
  • Good Student Discount – Maintaining excellent grades could provide a savings of up to 20% or more. Most companies allow this discount up to age 25.
  • Resident Student – Children who live away from home to go to college and don’t have a car can receive lower rates.
  • Senior Discount – Mature drivers can possibly qualify for a small decrease in premiums for Rabbit insurance.
  • Low Miles Discount – Maintaining low annual mileage could be rewarded with cheaper prices.
  • Drivers Ed for Students – Have your child take driver’s ed class if offered at their school.
  • Early Signing – Some companies provide a discount for buying a new policy before your current policy expires. This can save 10% or more.
  • Safe Driver Discounts – Drivers who avoid accidents may save up to 50% more for Rabbit insurance than their less cautious counterparts.
  • Paper-free Discount – Some of the larger companies will give you a small discount simply for signing on your computer.

One thing to note about discounts is that most discounts do not apply to all coverage premiums. The majority will only reduce the price of certain insurance coverages like comprehensive or collision. Even though the math looks like you could get a free insurance coverage policy, it doesn’t quite work that way.

Tailor your insurance coverage coverage to you

When buying the right insurance coverage for your personal vehicles, there isn’t really a single plan that fits everyone. Each situation is unique.

For example, these questions may help highlight if your situation might need an agent’s assistance.

  • Should I buy additional glass protection?
  • Where can I find high-risk insurance?
  • Can my teen driver be rated on a liability-only vehicle?
  • Am I covered when driving someone else’s vehicle?
  • How much underlying liability do I need for an umbrella policy?
  • Do I benefit by insuring my home with the same company?
  • Why does it cost so much to insure a teen driver?
  • If my 2007 Volkswagen Rabbit is totaled, can I afford another vehicle?

If you can’t answer these questions but you know they apply to you, then you may want to think about talking to an agent. To find lower rates from a local agent, complete this form. It is quick, free and can provide invaluable advice.

How do insurers determine Volkswagen Rabbit insurance costs?

Many factors are part of the calculation when you get a price on insurance. A few of the factors are predictable such as your driving history, although others are more transparent such as your marital status or your vehicle rating.Consumers need to have an understanding of some of the elements that aid in calculating the level of your policy premiums. If you have a feel for what controls the rates you pay, this empowers consumers to make smart changes that may reward you with better car insurance rates.

Shown below are a few of the things used by insurance companies to determine premiums.

  • Rate your vehicle for proper use – The higher the mileage driven every year the more you’ll pay to insure your vehicle. Most insurance companies calculate prices based upon how you use the vehicle. Autos that have low annual miles can get a lower rate than those used for commuting. Incorrect rating for your Rabbit can result in significantly higher rates. It’s a smart idea to ensure your car insurance policy is rated on the correct driver usage, because it can save money.
  • Rates increase with policy add-ons – Policies have extra bells and whistles that may not really be needed on your car insurance policy. Coverage for things like vanishing deductibles, better glass coverage, and extra equipment coverage could be just wasting money. The coverages may be enticing at first, but if you’ve never needed them in the past get rid of them and save.
  • Good drivers pay less – Only having one speeding ticket or other violation may cause rates to rise to the point where it’s not affordable. Drivers with clean records tend to pay less for car insurance as compared to careless drivers. Drivers unfortunate enough to have serious violations such as DUI or willful reckless driving are required to file a proof of financial responsibility form (SR-22) to the state department of motor vehicles in order to continue driving.
  • Vehicles with better crash test results cost less to insure – Vehicles with good safety scores tend to be cheaper to insure. Highly rated vehicles reduce injuries and lower rates of occupant injuries translates directly to fewer claims which can mean better rates for you.
  • Does your occupation raise your premiums? – Did you know your car insurance rates can be affected by your occupation? Careers such as doctors, architects and emergency personnel tend to have the highest rates in part from intense work requirements and lots of time spent away from family. Other occupations like professors, engineers and the unemployed generally pay rates lower than average for Rabbit insurance.
  • Higher premiums for car insurance policy lapses – Having a gap between insurance policy dates is a sure-fire way to increase your renewal premiums. Not only will you pay more, being ticketed for driving with no insurance will get you a license revocation or jail time.

Do drivers who switch really save?

Consumers can’t get away from ads for cheaper insurance coverage from companies such as 21st Century, Allstate and State Farm. All the companies make the same claim about saving some big amount after switching your policy.

But how can every company offer you a better deal?

All companies quote the lowest rates for the type of customer that will add to their bottom line. An example of a profitable insured may need to be over age 30, owns a home, and drives a vehicle with a low ISO rating. Anybody that fits those parameters will qualify for the lowest premium rates and will probably save a lot of money.

Consumers who don’t meet these standards may be forced to pay higher premiums and this results in business going elsewhere. Company advertisements say “drivers who switch” not “everyone that quotes” can save as much as they claim. That’s why insurance companies can lure you into getting a quote. This emphasizes why drivers should quote coverage with many companies. You cannot predict the company that will have the lowest rates for your situation.

Car insurance 101

Having a good grasp of a insurance policy can be of help when determining appropriate coverage for your vehicles. The terms used in a policy can be confusing and coverage can change by endorsement.

Collision protection

Collision coverage will pay to fix damage to your Rabbit caused by collision with another vehicle or an object, but not an animal. You will need to pay your deductible then the remaining damage will be paid by your insurance company.

Collision coverage protects against things such as driving through your garage door, scraping a guard rail and backing into a parked car. This coverage can be expensive, so consider removing coverage from vehicles that are 8 years or older. You can also bump up the deductible in order to get cheaper collision rates.

Protection from uninsured/underinsured drivers

Your UM/UIM coverage gives you protection from other drivers when they do not carry enough liability coverage. Covered claims include injuries to you and your family and also any damage incurred to your Volkswagen Rabbit.

Since many drivers have only the minimum liability required by law, their limits can quickly be used up. That’s why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage is very important.

Liability coverages

This can cover damages or injuries you inflict on people or other property. It protects YOU against claims from other people, and doesn’t cover your own vehicle damage or injuries.

It consists of three limits, per person bodily injury, per accident bodily injury, and a property damage limit. You might see policy limits of 50/100/50 that translate to a $50,000 limit per person for injuries, a per accident bodily injury limit of $100,000, and property damage coverage for $50,000.

Liability can pay for claims such as repair bills for other people’s vehicles, medical expenses, loss of income and attorney fees. How much liability coverage do you need? That is up to you, but it’s cheap coverage so purchase as large an amount as possible.

Medical expense insurance

Med pay and PIP coverage provide coverage for expenses for chiropractic care, rehabilitation expenses, ambulance fees and X-ray expenses. They are used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance plan or if you do not have health coverage. They cover not only the driver but also the vehicle occupants in addition to being hit by a car walking across the street. PIP coverage is not available in all states but can be used in place of medical payments coverage

Comprehensive (Other than Collision)

Comprehensive insurance coverage pays for damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. A deductible will apply and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage.

Comprehensive insurance covers things such as rock chips in glass, falling objects and fire damage. The maximum payout you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the actual cash value, so if it’s not worth much more than your deductible it’s not worth carrying full coverage.

Quote more, save more

As you quote auto insurance, make sure you don’t skimp on coverage in order to save money. There have been many situations where drivers have reduced liability coverage limits only to regret that the few dollars in savings costed them thousands. Your focus should be to get the best coverage possible at the best cost.

We just presented a lot of ways to lower your 2007 Volkswagen Rabbit insurance prices. The most important thing to understand is the more rate quotes you have, the better likelihood of getting cheaper auto insurance. You may even find the lowest prices come from a lesser-known regional company.

Budget-friendly auto insurance can be sourced from both online companies in addition to local insurance agencies, and you should be comparing both in order to have the best price selection to choose from. A few companies may not have online price quotes and usually these smaller providers only sell through local independent agents.
