Car insurance premiums on a 2008 will vary greatly depending on several factors. Some of these factors include:

  • Higher performance 2008 vehicles cost more
  • Your accident history
  • Home/auto policy bundles save money
  • Pleasure use vs. commuting use
  • Extra coverages like towing and rental
  • Your occupation
  • Your coverage level
  • Whether you own your home

Liability coverage

This coverage protects you from damage that occurs to people or other property that is your fault. Liability insurance covers things like legal defense fees, bail bonds, and repair bills for other people's vehicles. Coverage is generally pretty cheap so you should buy as much as you can afford.

Coverage for collisions

This pays for damage to your resulting from a collision with another car or object. You have to pay a deductible then your collision coverage will kick in. Collision coverage for your 2008 can be pricey, so you might think about dropping it from older vehicles. Another option is to raise the deductible to get cheaper .

Comprehensive coverage

This coverage will pay to fix damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. A deductible will apply and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage. The maximum amount you'll receive from a claim is the ACV or actual cash value, so if the vehicle is not worth much consider dropping full coverage.

Protection from uninsured/underinsured drivers

Your UM/UIM coverage gives you protection when other motorists do not carry enough liability coverage. Since a lot of drivers only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, it only takes a small accident to exceed their coverage. That's why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage should not be overlooked.

Medical payments coverage and PIP

Med pay and PIP coverage pay for short-term medical expenses such as nursing services, prosthetic devices, and dental work. The coverages can be used in conjunction with a health insurance plan or if you lack health insurance entirely. Personal Injury Protection is not available in all states but can be used in place of medical payments coverage.
