Insurance rates on a 2005 will vary greatly depending on several factors. Some of these factors include:

  • Higher performance 2005 vehicles cost more
  • Your accident history
  • Home/auto policy bundles save money
  • Pleasure use vs. commuting use
  • Extra coverages like towing and rental
  • Your profession
  • Your coverage level
  • Whether you own your home

One last important factor which can affect the rate you pay on your is the year of manufacture. Models that are a few years old cost less so the cost to replace them may result in lower rates. On the flip side, newer vehicles may have options like traction control, adaptive headlights, and automatic crash notification so those may give discounted rates.

Liability

This coverage can cover 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 purchase as much as you can afford.

Collision protection

This covers 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 2005 can be pricey, so you might think about dropping it from vehicles that are 8 years or older. It's also possible to choose a higher deductible to get cheaper .

Comprehensive or Other Than Collision

This coverage pays to fix your vehicle from damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. A deductible will apply then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage. The maximum amount you'll receive from a claim is the ACV or actual cash value, so if the vehicle's value is low it's probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.

Uninsured or underinsured coverage

Your UM/UIM coverage protects you and your vehicle when other motorists either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. Since a lot of drivers have only the minimum liability required by law, it only takes a small accident to exceed their coverage. That's why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage should not be overlooked.

Medical costs insurance

Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP pay for short-term medical expenses for things like nursing services, prosthetic devices, and dental work. They are used in conjunction with a health insurance plan or if you lack health insurance entirely. Personal Injury Protection is not an option in every state but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage.
