Rates are impacted by these factors

Insurance rates on a 1990 can fluctuate considerably and are calculated by many factors. Including but not limited to:

  • High performance increases premiums
  • Accidents raise premiums
  • Multiple policies can save money
  • Pleasure use vs. commuting use
  • Add-on coverages such as rental reimbursement
  • No claims lowers premiums
  • No coverage lapses saves money
  • Home ownership saves money

One last important factor that helps determine the rate you pay on your is the year of manufacture. Models that are new cost more so the costs to repair may result in higher rates. Conversely, newer models may have options such as dual-stage airbags, sideview assist mirrors, and active head restraints which may help offset higher rates.

Liability coverages

This protects you from damage or injury you incur to people or other property in an accident. Liability can pay for claims like pain and suffering, repair costs for stationary objects, and legal defense fees. It is cheap coverage so purchase as high a limit as you can afford.

Collision coverage protection

Collision insurance pays for damage to your resulting from a collision with a stationary object or other vehicle. A deductible applies then the remaining damage will be paid by your insurance company. Collision coverage for your 1990 can be pricey, so analyze the benefit of dropping coverage from vehicles that are 8 years or older. Drivers also have the option to choose a higher deductible to bring the cost down.

Comprehensive coverages

This coverage covers damage from a wide range of events other than collision. You first must pay your deductible then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage. The most your auto insurance company will pay is the cash value of the vehicle, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle's value consider dropping full coverage.

Coverage for uninsured or underinsured drivers

Uninsured or Underinsured Motorist coverage provides protection from other drivers when they do not carry enough liability coverage. Since many drivers carry very low liability coverage limits, their limits can quickly be used up. So UM/UIM coverage is very important.

Coverage for medical payments

Med pay and PIP coverage kick in for immediate expenses for things like EMT expenses, pain medications, and nursing services. They can be used in conjunction with a health insurance program or if you do not have health coverage. PIP coverage is not available in all states and may carry a deductible.
