Car Insurers at Car Insurance Supermarket
If you are looking for
listings of UK car insurers in order to select one or two to check for
your own car, then the second link above will help you to find good
cover via a leading UK car insurer of your choice. Our editorials give
you some helpful brief pricing and policy advice to assist your choices.
If you would like an automated system to check numerous car insurers on
your behalf, then you can select from any of the three price comparison
systems we also list above, the most popular here being our own one at
the top. This type of service is very widely used in the UK, although
less so in other countries.
If you want car insurers that provide niche products, for example,
young driver's cover or woman only cover, then going direct to
specialists for these market niches can make sense if you are keen to
save money. They are not always the answer, however. We have dropped
several prominent women only brands because they were not competing
favourably alongside other services here, notably the price comparison
systems.
Of all the car insurers that we list here, Marks and Spencer has been
the most often purchased direct product for a long time; so if you want
to get quotes from car insurers direct and don't know where to start,
they are a good choice. Their good performance here is consistent with
industry research conducted by Which?
Consumer Magazine that found that they performed well across most car
insurance groups. This same research also flagged up Hastings
Direct as
a good performer across the board; so that would be another to check if
you wish to consider more than one.
Our car insurers page includes numerous well-known companies including
ever-popular Direct Line and Budget car insurance that both command a
large share of the UK market.
If you decide to identify car insurers through a price comparison
service, be aware of the cover. It is best not to use price as the only
factor influencing choice. Price comparison sites allow you to make the
final choice, you don't have to select the cheapest. Generally
speaking, via economic and commercial necessity, the cheapest car
insurers offer the least comprehensive cover. There is no other way
they can cut costs. If you overlook or disregard this, you could become
unstuck if you need to claim. It pays to be careful when choosing car
insurers online.
