Be sure to get all your discounts

Insurance can cost an arm and a leg, but discounts can save money and there are some available that you may not even be aware of. Most are applied at the time of quoting, but a few need to be specifically requested prior to getting the savings.

  • Service Members Pay Less – Being deployed with a military unit can result in better rates.
  • Save over 55 – Older drivers may receive a discount up to 10% on A6 coverage.
  • Multiple Policy Discount – When you have multiple policies with the same insurance company you could get a discount of 10% to 20% off each policy.
  • Accident Forgiveness – Some insurance companies allow you one accident without raising rates if your claims history is clear for a set time period.
  • Safe Driver Discount – Drivers who avoid accidents may save up to 50% more on A6 coverage than their less cautious counterparts.
  • Own a Home – Owning a house can save you money because maintaining a house requires personal responsibility.

Consumers should know that some of the credits will not apply to the overall cost of the policy. Some only apply to the cost of specific coverages such as medical payments or collision. Even though it may seem like all the discounts add up to a free policy, car insurance companies aren’t that generous. Any amount of discount will bring down your overall premium however.

Insurance companies that possibly offer some of the above discounts may include but are not limited to:

Auto insurance coverages

Knowing the specifics of a insurance policy helps when choosing the right coverages for your vehicles. Insurance terms can be impossible to understand and even agents have difficulty translating policy wording. These are typical coverages found on the average insurance policy.

Liability insurance – Liability coverage provides protection from damages or injuries you inflict on other people or property that is your fault. Coverage consists of three different limits, bodily injury for each person injured, bodily injury for the entire accident and a property damage limit. Your policy might show policy limits of 100/300/100 which means a $100,000 limit per person for injuries, a limit of $300,000 in injury protection per accident, and a limit of $100,000 paid for damaged property. Some companies may use a combined single limit or CSL which limits claims to one amount without having the split limit caps.

Liability can pay for things such as repair bills for other people’s vehicles, medical services, emergency aid and bail bonds. How much liability coverage do you need? That is a personal decision, but you should buy higher limits if possible.

Comprehensive coverage (or Other than Collision) – This coverage will pay to fix damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. A deductible will apply and the remainder of the damage will be paid by comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive coverage pays for things such as vandalism, hitting a bird, a tree branch falling on your vehicle, fire damage and damage from flooding. The highest amount your insurance company will pay is the actual cash value, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle’s value it’s not worth carrying full coverage.

Insurance for medical payments – Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance pay for bills for doctor visits, prosthetic devices, rehabilitation expenses, chiropractic care and hospital visits. They are used in conjunction with a health insurance policy or if you are not covered by health insurance. Coverage applies to both the driver and occupants in addition to any family member struck as a pedestrian. Personal Injury Protection is only offered in select states but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage

Uninsured Motorist or Underinsured Motorist insurance – This protects you and your vehicle’s occupants when other motorists do not carry enough liability coverage. Covered claims include medical payments for you and your occupants as well as damage to your Audi A6.

Because many people only carry the minimum required liability limits, it only takes a small accident to exceed their coverage. So UM/UIM coverage should not be overlooked. Frequently the UM/UIM limits are set the same as your liablity limits.

Collision – Collision coverage covers damage to your A6 caused by collision with an object or car. You will need to pay your deductible then your collision coverage will kick in.

Collision can pay for things such as colliding with a tree, sideswiping another vehicle, backing into a parked car, crashing into a building and sustaining damage from a pot hole. This coverage can be expensive, so you might think about dropping it from vehicles that are 8 years or older. It’s also possible to bump up the deductible to get cheaper collision coverage.

Be a money saver!

Lower-priced 1998 Audi A6 insurance is available online and with local insurance agents, and you need to comparison shop both to have the best chance of lowering rates. A few companies do not offer the ability to get a quote online and most of the time these smaller companies sell through independent agents.

As you restructure your insurance plan, never skimp on coverage in order to save money. In too many instances, someone dropped uninsured motorist or liability limits only to regret that it was a big mistake. Your aim should be to purchase plenty of coverage for the lowest price while still protecting your assets.
