How can I save on my premiums?

• As you might expect, you pay more to insure models with larger engine capacities. However, with the Camaro, this is greater than you’d expect. An automatic 6.2L model could cost, by some estimates, approximately £99.06 more than the 3.8L model every month.
• Insurance companies will be interested in your personal situation. This includes details such as your age, sex, marital status, and geographical location, and can be expanded to include your no-claims discount and record of motoring and non-motoring convictions.
• Try to stay within the national average of 10,000 miles per year.
• Insurers would like to know whether your vehicle has any modifications installed. This includes safety and security features, which might bring down your premiums, and non-safety modifications, which would likely be viewed poorly.
• Financial situation dependent, it may be advantageous to switch from paying your insurance payments monthly or in an annual statement. This switch is predicted to save you an average of £156.08 every year.
