Compare cheap car insurance quotes at Google. Save money!
October 26th, 2012 | by Sean |Just renewed my motor insurance. I got a renewal quote from my current insurer (AutoNet) for £480 pounds. Typed “car insurance” into Google and spotted a funny little ‘sponsored’ box at the top of the results:
I don’t usually click on the sponsored ads, expecting prices from sponsoring companies to include premiums that make promotion worthwhile. Still, I expected Google to have made a good job of motor insurance comparison and it was a clear and simple process to follow. I got a best quote of £273 pounds – a considerable saving.
I didn’t take that quote. I phoned my current insurer and told them I’d found a better price. They did a re-quote for me (I had typed greater Voluntary Excess amounts into Google’s system, and chosen Third Part Fire and Theft). We noticed between us that my best quote did not include Legal cover. The best Third Party quote was substantially more than the best quote from Google, but there was a Comprehensive policy that included Legal cover from an insurer I’d heard of for £269.
So there you are. It was well worth a visit to www.google.co.uk/compare/carinsurance for me. I hope you find it useful too.
