Save money by taking advantage of these discounts

Insuring your fleet can be pricey, but discounts can save money and there are some available that can drop the cost substantially. Certain discounts will be applied when you quote, but some must be asked for in order for you to get them. If you’re not getting every credit you qualify for, you are paying more than you should be.

Factors that can influence Land Rover LR2 insurance rates

It’s important that you understand the factors that go into determining the price you pay for insurance. Knowing what determines base rates helps enable you to make changes that may reward you with much lower annual insurance costs.

  • Where do you drive? – Driving more miles in a year the more you’ll pay to insure your vehicle. Most insurance companies charge to insure your cars based on their usage. Vehicles left parked in the garage receive lower rates than those used for commuting. Make sure your insurance coverage is rated on the proper vehicle usage, because improper ratings can cost you money. Incorrect usage on your LR2 can result in significantly higher rates.
  • Careful drivers pay lower rates – Good drivers receive lower rates than bad drivers. Only having one ticket can increase rates by as much as thirty percent. Drivers with serious tickets like DWI, reckless driving or hit and run convictions are required to submit a SR-22 or proof of financial responsibility with their state motor vehicle department in order to continue driving.
  • Adjust deductibles and save – Physical damage insurance, termed comprehensive and collision coverage on your policy, is used to repair damage to your Land Rover. Some instances where coverage would apply could be running into the backend of another car, collision with an animal, and rolling your vehicle. Deductibles for physical damage are how much you are willing to pay before a claim is paid by your company. The more you are required to pay out-of-pocket, the less your company will charge you for insurance on LR2 coverage.
  • Pay less if you’re married – Having a wife or husband helps lower the price when buying insurance. Having a spouse translates into being more mature and responsible and it’s proven that drivers who are married are more cautious.
  • Do you need those extra coverages? – There are a ton of extra bells and whistles that can waste your money when buying insurance. Coverages like personal injury protection, accident forgiveness and motor club memberships may be wasting your money. These coverages may sound good when you first buy your policy, but if you don’t need them get rid of them and save.

When should I use an insurance agent?

When it comes to buying proper insurance coverage for your personal vehicles, there isn’t really a “perfect” insurance plan. Everyone’s needs are different so your insurance needs to address that. For example, these questions may help you determine whether or not you would benefit from professional advice.

  • Am I covered if my car is in a flood?
  • Is business equipment covered while in my vehicle?
  • Is pleasure use cheaper than using my 2011 Land Rover LR2 to commute?
  • What is high-risk coverage and where do I buy it?
  • Why does it cost so much to insure a teen driver?
  • Does coverage extend to a rental car in a foreign country?
  • Who is covered by my policy?
  • When should my teen driver be added to my policy?
  • Should I put collision coverage on all my vehicles?
  • What can I do if my company denied a claim?

If it’s difficult to answer those questions, you might consider talking to a licensed agent. To find an agent in your area, take a second and complete this form or you can also visit this page to select a carrier It’s fast, doesn’t cost anything and may give you better protection.

The car insurance bait and switch

Consumers can’t ignore all the ads for cheaper car insurance from the likes of Progressive, Allstate and Geico. All the ads make the same claim of big savings after switching your coverage to them.

How do they all make almost identical claims?

Different companies have a certain “appetite” for the driver that makes them money. For example, a preferred risk might be between the ages of 40 and 55, is a homeowner, and drives less than 10,000 miles a year. A customer who matches those parameters will get the preferred rates and therefore will cut their rates substantially.

Consumers who don’t meet these standards will have to pay higher premiums and this can result in the driver buying from a lower-cost company. The ads say “people who switch” not “everybody who quotes” save that kind of money. That is how insurance companies can confidently state the savings.

Because of the profiling, drivers must quote coverage with many companies. It’s just too difficult to predict the company that will fit your personal profile best.

Insurance coverages and their meanings

Understanding the coverages of your insurance policy helps when choosing the best coverages at the best deductibles and correct limits. The terms used in a policy can be impossible to understand and coverage can change by endorsement. Below you’ll find the normal coverages available from insurance companies.

Comprehensive insurance – Comprehensive insurance coverage will pay to fix damage from a wide range of events other than collision. You first have to pay a deductible then your comprehensive coverage will pay.

Comprehensive coverage protects against claims such as damage from getting keyed, rock chips in glass and damage from a tornado or hurricane. The maximum amount you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the market value of your vehicle, so if the vehicle is not worth much consider removing comprehensive coverage.

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist (UM/UIM) – Your UM/UIM coverage gives you protection when other motorists either have no liability insurance or not enough. It can pay for injuries sustained by your vehicle’s occupants and also any damage incurred to your Land Rover LR2.

Since many drivers only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, their liability coverage can quickly be exhausted. For this reason, having high UM/UIM coverages is important protection for you and your family. Most of the time these coverages do not exceed the liability coverage limits.

Collision – Collision insurance covers damage to your LR2 caused by collision with an object or car. You first must pay a deductible and then insurance will cover the remainder.

Collision coverage protects against things like hitting a mailbox, colliding with another moving vehicle, driving through your garage door and rolling your car. Collision is rather expensive coverage, so you might think about dropping it from vehicles that are older. Drivers also have the option to choose a higher deductible to get cheaper collision coverage.

Med pay and Personal Injury Protection (PIP) – Med pay and PIP coverage pay for bills like doctor visits, hospital visits, nursing services, dental work and chiropractic care. They can be used in conjunction with a health insurance plan or if you do not have health coverage. They cover both the driver and occupants as well as if you are hit as a while walking down the street. Personal Injury Protection is only offered in select states and may carry a deductible

Liability coverages – This coverage can cover damages or injuries you inflict on a person or their property that is your fault. This coverage protects you from claims by other people. It does not cover damage sustained by your vehicle in an accident.

Coverage consists of three different limits, per person bodily injury, per accident bodily injury, and a property damage limit. As an example, you may have values of 50/100/50 which means $50,000 bodily injury coverage, a per accident bodily injury limit of $100,000, and $50,000 of coverage for damaged propery. Occasionally you may see a combined limit which limits claims to one amount rather than limiting it on a per person basis.

Liability coverage protects against things such as medical expenses, funeral expenses, loss of income and legal defense fees. How much liability should you purchase? That is up to you, but it’s cheap coverage so purchase as much as you can afford.

Be a Smart Shopper

Discount 2011 Land Rover LR2 insurance can be purchased from both online companies and also from your neighborhood agents, so you should be comparing quotes from both to have the best chance of lowering rates. Some insurance providers may not provide online quoting and these small insurance companies work with independent agents.

We just presented a lot of techniques to reduce insurance prices online. The most important thing to understand is the more times you quote, the more likely it is that you will get a better rate. Drivers may discover the lowest rates come from a lesser-known regional company. They may have significantly lower rates on certain market segments than the large multi-state companies such as State Farm, Geico and Nationwide.
