Insurance premiums on a 1996 can be significantly different depending on several factors. Some of these factors include:

  • Higher performance 1996 vehicles cost more
  • How many accidents you have had
  • Whether you insure your home with the same company
  • Pleasure use vs. commuting use
  • Extra coverages like towing and rental
  • Whether or not you have claims
  • Having continuous coverage saves you money
  • Whether you own your home

One important consideration that will help determine your rates is the age of the vehicle. New vehicles have a higher replacement value compared to older models so the cost to replace them may end up costing you more. Although newer vehicles have more advanced features included like blind-spot warning system, dual-stage airbags, and automatic crash notification that may help give discounted rates.

Liability

This coverage can cover damage that occurs to people or other property by causing an accident. Liability coverage protects against things like legal defense fees, bail bonds, and repair bills for other people's vehicles. Coverage is generally pretty cheap so buy as large an amount as possible.

Collision coverage protection

Collision coverage covers damage to your resulting from a collision with another car or object. You first must pay a deductible then your collision coverage will kick in. Collision coverage for your 1996 can be pricey, so you might think about dropping it from lower value vehicles. It's also possible to increase the deductible in order to get cheaper .

Comprehensive or Other Than Collision

This coverage pays to fix your vehicle from damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. A deductible will apply then your comprehensive coverage will pay. The highest amount you'll receive from a claim is the ACV or actual cash value, so if the vehicle's value is low it's probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.

Coverage for uninsured or underinsured drivers

Your UM/UIM coverage protects you and your vehicle from other motorists when they either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. Due to the fact that many drivers have only the minimum liability required by law, their liability coverage can quickly be exhausted. This is the reason having UM/UIM coverage is important protection for you and your family.

Medical costs insurance

Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP pay 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 you are not covered by health insurance. Personal Injury Protection is not an option in every state but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage.
