According to a new survey by Liverpool Victoria motorists are finding car repairs too difficult to undertake with modern cars.
Around 33 percent of drivers find the lights and information on their dashboards confusing, while some 75 percent feel that, in the event of a vehicle breakdown, they would be unable to repair the car themselves. Such is the way with modern cars that almost 50 percent of people in the Liverpool Victoria survey have no idea what is under the bonnet, since they rarely if ever open them.
The results of the survey highlight firstly the need for breakdown cover since most car drivers need that roadside assistance and also that car insurance cover may well become more expensive as items are not repaired but replaced.

The car is being blamed for most of the pollution of the world, though this is far from reality as far as many are concerned. However Budget Insurance are on hand to help make it all better with their new emissions offsetting car insurance policy.
The insurer claims that one hundred percent of the customers carbon dioxide emissions will be offset for the duration of the policy. How this will work is that a contribution will be made to projects organised by the Carbon Neutral Company, who are overseeing different eco friendly activities across the globe that are helping clean it up.
This initiative from Budget Insurance is seen by some as a practical solution to going green, recognising that the car is a much needed mode of transport in many parts of the UK, but wanting to do something to mitigate its effects on the environment.
Excellent first quarter results for the Admiral group have raised expectations for a record year through the rest of 2008.
Turnover for the car insurance provider was up by 14 percent in Q1 compared with the same time last year at GBP232 million. More excellent news came with the increase in customer numbers that was also recorded. Admiral saw the number of customers rise by 17 percent, a factor that leads them to consider the possibility of a record year.
The CEO from Admiral insurance said that they would keep delivering good results in spite of the difficult trading conditions they are dealing with. Car insurance is something that everyone needs and by being competitive they can win more market share.
