Price of cheap car insurance quotes increases in last quarter of 2006

Ladies who are looking for a cheap car insurance quote will find it harder than three months ago, according to the AA British Insurance Premium Index.

In the past three months, the cost of a comprehensive motor insurance quote has rocketed by 4.35 percent. This puts the average comprehensive UK car insurance policy at almost £806, which is nearly twice as much as it was in 1994, when the AA British Insurance Premium Index was formed.

There has also been some upward movement in cheap car insurance quotes for third party, fire and theft policies. Those who buy these motor insurance policies now have to pay an average of £999, which is slightly more than three months ago.

The managing director of AA Insurance reasoned: "Other insurers are now following Norwich Union's lead and have increased premiums to more realistic levels given that the cost of claims is rising at about 6 percent per annum - and this is reflected in the Index.

"In the past three quarters, premiums have risen by nearly 6 percent and I believe this trend will continue."

Lee-Anne Bass, of women's car insurance company CoverGirl Car Insurance Services, commented: "Whilst the average cost of motor insurance is rising, there are still some good deals around.

"The key to getting a really cheap car insurance quote is to shop around and take advantage of any special offers."

*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).
