Car insurance news

It's taken ten years for car manufacturers to produce a street-wise alternative to the chic and funky Ford Ka, but now one has finally arrived, and cool is something of an understatement.

Citroen's delicious new C1 simply oozes class; a proper little beast to be proud of. It's got a top speed of nearly 100mph, and with a motor insurance rating of only group one, cheap car insurance is guaranteed.

Starting at only £6,595 on the road, the C1 is the perfect car for the fashion-conscious modern girl. It comes in a choice of über-fab colours and there's loads of boot space to squeeze in your shopping bags. It's nippy around town but can hold it's own on the motorway too, and a one-litre engine means it doesn't guzzle petrol.

There's something about the C1's under-the-bonnet-tackle that makes it sound simply fabulous, darling, and you get the feel you're driving a Ferrari or a Porsche instead of a French-made supermini. It's roomy inside, so there's no problem packing all your friends in for a girly weekend away, and you can get air con, metallic paint and a whole range of other little add-ons too.

But the best thing about the Citroen C1 is its cheapness. And I don't mean in a tacky, rubbishy, pink, yukky sense. A bargain to buy in the first place, and an economically-aware delicate sipper of petrol, its group one motor insurance rating means that if you buy your cover from a firm that specialise in car insurance for women, this is likely to be one of the most reasonable get-arounds that you'll ever splash your cash on.

*A replacement car can normally be arranged under one of the following conditions: (1) Comprehensive policyholders – a replacement car may be available under the terms of your insurance policy. Please check your policy details for more information. (2) Non fault accident – where we have the name, car registration number and insurance details of the person who caused the accident, we can supply a replacement car. This is done on a credit hire basis which means the costs for this service will be passed onto the insurance company of the person who caused the accident. We may not be able to arrange a replacement car where we are unable to get an admission of liability from their insurance company, or where the driver is untraceable or uninsured. (3) Repair garage – if your car is booked in for repairs following an accident, the repair garage may be able to provide a replacement car (subject to availability).
