Which method you use is up to you, but make sure you are using exactly the same coverages and limits on every quote. If you enter unequal deductibles or liability limits you will not be able to determine the best price for your Jaguar XK.

Use discounts on car insurance

Some companies do not list their entire list of discounts very clearly, so we took the time to find some of the best known in addition to some of the lesser obvious credits available to you. If you do not check that you are getting every discount possible, it’s possible you qualify for a lower rate.

  • Safe Driver Discounts – Accident-free drivers can pay as much as 50% less for XK coverage than less cautious drivers.
  • Distant College Student Discount – Any of your kids who are attending college and do not have a car could qualify for this discount.
  • Sign Online – Certain insurance companies will provide an incentive for buying your policy over the internet.
  • Telematics Discount – Drivers who elect to allow their car insurance company to study driving habits by using a telematics device in their vehicle like Drivewise from Allstate or In-Drive from State Farm might get better premium rates if their driving habits are good.
  • Student Driver Training – Reduce the cost of insurance for teen drivers by having them take driver’s ed class as it can save substantially.
  • Low Mileage – Driving fewer miles may enable drivers to earn better rates on cars that stay parked.
  • Discounts for New Vehicles – Putting car insurance coverage on a new car may earn a small discount compared to insuring an older model.
  • Multi-car Discount – Having multiple cars or trucks on one policy can get a discount on all vehicles.

Discounts lower rates, but many deductions do not apply to the entire cost. Most only reduce the price of certain insurance coverages like comprehensive or collision. Despite the appearance that you can get free auto insurance, that’s just not realistic. Any qualifying discounts will definitely reduce the amount you pay for coverage.

Popular car insurance companies and some of their more popular discounts are outlined below.

  • State Farm offers premium reductions for driver’s education, multiple autos, multiple policy, Steer Clear safe driver discount, accident-free, and defensive driving training.
  • Farmers Insurance policyholders can earn discounts including switch companies, early shopping, distant student, business and professional, mature driver, pay in full, and teen driver.

  • Is there coverage for injuries to my pets?
  • What is high-risk coverage and where do I buy it?
  • Do I need to file an SR-22 for a DUI in my state?
  • Do I need added coverage for expensive stereo equipment?
  • Can I rate high risk drivers on liability-only vehicles?

If you don’t know the answers to these questions, you might consider talking to an insurance agent. If you want to speak to an agent in your area, simply complete this short form. It is quick, free and may give you better protection.

Insurance policy specifics

Knowing the specifics of your policy can be of help when determining the best coverages for your vehicles. Insurance terms can be ambiguous and nobody wants to actually read their policy.

Protection from uninsured/underinsured drivers

This coverage protects you and your vehicle when other motorists are uninsured or don’t have enough coverage. It can pay for hospital bills for your injuries as well as damage to your Jaguar XK.

Due to the fact that many drivers only carry the minimum required liability limits, it doesn’t take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. That’s why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage is very important. Usually the UM/UIM limits are identical to your policy’s liability coverage.

Medical expense insurance

Personal Injury Protection (PIP) and medical payments coverage provide coverage for short-term medical expenses for hospital visits, prosthetic devices and nursing services. The coverages can be used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance policy or if there is no health insurance coverage. It covers both the driver and occupants in addition to any family member struck as a pedestrian. Personal Injury Protection is only offered in select states and gives slightly broader coverage than med pay

Coverage for liability

This protects you from damages or injuries you inflict on people or other property by causing an accident. This coverage protects you from claims by other people, and does not provide coverage for damage sustained by your vehicle in an accident.

Split limit liability has three limits of coverage: bodily injury for each person, bodily injury for the entire accident, and a limit for property damage. You might see limits of 50/100/50 that means you have $50,000 in coverage for each person’s injuries, a total of $100,000 of bodily injury coverage per accident, and property damage coverage for $50,000. Some companies may use a combined single limit or CSL which limits claims to one amount and claims can be made without the split limit restrictions.

Liability coverage protects against things such as legal defense fees, repair bills for other people’s vehicles, pain and suffering and repair costs for stationary objects. How much coverage you buy is up to you, but buy higher limits if possible.

Comprehensive (Other than Collision)

Comprehensive insurance covers damage that is not covered by collision coverage. A deductible will apply then your comprehensive coverage will pay.

Comprehensive insurance covers claims such as hail damage, falling objects, damage from flooding, theft and damage from a tornado or hurricane. The maximum payout a insurance company will pay at claim time is the actual cash value, so if the vehicle’s value is low consider removing comprehensive coverage.

Auto collision coverage

Collision insurance pays for damage to your XK caused by collision with another car or object. You first must pay a deductible and then insurance will cover the remainder.

Collision coverage pays for things like hitting a parking meter, damaging your car on a curb, colliding with a tree and backing into a parked car. Collision coverage makes up a good portion of your premium, so you might think about dropping it from older vehicles. Drivers also have the option to raise the deductible to save money on collision insurance.

Stretch your dollar

As you shop your coverage around, you should never buy poor coverage just to save money. There are many occasions where someone sacrificed uninsured motorist or liability limits only to regret at claim time that the small savings ended up costing them much more. Your focus should be to purchase a proper amount of coverage at the best price but still have enough coverage for asset protection.

The cheapest 2010 Jaguar XK insurance is definitely available from both online companies and from local agencies, and you need to comparison shop both in order to have the best chance of saving money. Some insurance coverage companies do not provide online price quotes and usually these small, regional companies only sell coverage through independent agents.

Consumers change insurance companies for many reasons like high rates after DUI convictions, questionable increases in premium, delays in responding to claim requests or even unfair underwriting practices. Regardless of your reason for switching companies, finding a new company can be easy and end up saving you some money.
