Insurance premiums on a 2008 can be significantly different subject to many criteria. Some of these factors include:

• More performance equals higher cost
• How many accidents you have had
• Multiple policies can save money
• Pleasure use vs. commuting use
• Extra coverages like towing and rental
• Your job
• The amount of protection requested
• Whether you own your home

One important consideration that helps determine your rates is the age of the vehicle. Older models cost less compared to new models so the cost to replace them can decrease annual premiums. But newer models have more advanced features including an advanced theft deterrent system, all-wheel drive, and traction control that may help give discounted rates.

Liability coverage

2008 liability coverage protects you from damage that occurs to people or other property in an accident. Liability coverage protects against things like legal defense fees, bail bonds, and repair bills for other people's vehicles. This coverage is usually fairly inexpensive so buy as large an amount as possible.

Auto collision coverage

Collision insurance pays for damage to your resulting from a collision with another car or object. You first must pay a deductible and the rest of the damage will be paid by collision coverage. Collision coverage for your 2008 can be pricey, so consider removing coverage from lower value vehicles. It's also possible to increase the deductible to save money on collision insurance.

Comprehensive coverage

This coverage pays to fix your vehicle from damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. You need to pay your deductible first then your comprehensive coverage will pay. The highest amount you'll receive from a claim is the market value of your vehicle, so if the vehicle's value is low consider dropping full coverage.

UM/UIM (Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist) coverage

Your UM/UIM coverage protects you and your vehicle when the "other guys" do not carry enough liability coverage. Since many drivers have only the minimum liability required by law, their liability coverage can quickly be exhausted. For this reason, having high UM/UIM coverages is very important.

Medical payments coverage and PIP

Med pay and PIP coverage reimburse you for short-term medical expenses like nursing services, prosthetic devices, and dental work. They are used in conjunction with a health insurance policy or if there is no health insurance coverage. Personal injury protection coverage is not available in all states but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage.
