Cheap car insurance is becoming a major in factor in determining what car to buy, according to Swinton, the UK’s leading high street car insurance retailer.
(PRWEB) March 31, 2009 — As sales of expensive sports cars and petrol guzzling 4x4s drop due to the current financial climate, motorists are searching for cars that provide more economic solutions, especially when it comes to car insurance.
A survey of 1,000 Swinton customers found that when purchasing a new car, the top five cost considerations were:
1. Price of vehicle
2. Car insurance premium
3. Petrol consumption/cost
4. Road tax
5. Repairs
