Insurance rates for a 2000 will vary greatly depending on several factors. Some of these factors include:

• Higher performance 2000 vehicles cost more
• Your accident history
• Home/auto policy bundles save money
• Use of your vehicle
• Extra coverages like towing and rental
• Your profession
• The amount of protection requested
• Whether you own your home

One last important factor which can affect the rate you pay on your is the year of manufacture. Models that are a few years old cost less so repair costs tend to be lower which may result in lower rates. But newer models may have options including anti-lock brakes, adaptive headlights, and adaptive cruise control so those may give discounted rates.

Liability - This coverage protects you from damage that occurs to other people or property that is your fault. Liability insurance covers things like legal defense fees, bail bonds, and repair bills for other people's vehicles. Coverage is generally pretty cheap so purchase as much as you can afford.

Collision coverage - This pays for damage to your caused by collision with another car or object. You have to pay a deductible then your collision coverage will kick in. 2000 collision insurance is rather expensive coverage, so you might think about dropping it from vehicles that are 8 years or older. It's also possible to choose a higher deductible to save money on collision insurance.

Comprehensive or Other Than Collision - Comprehensive insurance pays to fix your vehicle from damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. A deductible will apply then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage. The maximum amount you'll receive from a claim is the ACV or actual cash value, so if the vehicle's value is low consider dropping full coverage.

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage - Your UM/UIM coverage protects you and your vehicle when the "other guys" do not carry enough liability coverage. Since a lot of drivers have only the minimum liability required by law, it only takes a small accident to exceed their coverage. For this reason, having high UM/UIM coverages should not be overlooked.

Medical costs insurance - Med pay and PIP coverage pay for short-term medical expenses for things like nursing services, prosthetic devices, and dental work. They are used to fill the gap from your health insurance plan or if there is no health insurance coverage. Personal Injury Protection is not available in all states but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage.
