Kwik Fit Insurance has taken steps to meet future legislation by investing in electronic car insurance certificate equipment.
The legislation to enable the delivery of electronic car insurance certificates is expected to arrive in 2009, making it easier to fulfil the needs of approximately 70 percent of Kwik Fit Insurance customers who buy their car insurance cover online. It also reduces costs, with less administration needed through the process.
There can be issues with electronic communication, especially regarding identity fraud, but Kwik Fit Insurance are investing in this new system to protect against such issues, which should be reassuring to customers and road users alike.
2 years after launching women only car insurance Sheilas Wheels are now one of the best recognised insurance companies around.
To celebrate this status Sheilas Wheels have been looking at how women shop for car insurance, finding that they actually spend more time choosing their outfit for the Christmas party than they do getting car insurance.
It appears that the average woman takes just over 2 hours searching for and then buying car insurance, no doubt helped by easy to use sites like the one at Sheilas Wheels of course. Another factor is that personal recommendations are very important to women, which can also make the whole process of getting car insurance faster.
Now when it comes to buying Christmas party outfits that is a whole different matter.
After a study of the data gained through the Tesco car insurance comparison site it has been found that car choice is determined a lot by the age of the driver.
The typical Jaguar driver, for example, is 47 years old, whilst if it is a Mercedes then they will be, on average, 43. Moving down a little on the age groups, Volvo drivers tend to be around 42 whilst Porsche drivers, specifically of the 911, Boxster and Cayenne will be around 40 years old.
These marques are only a small sample from the full list, but one thing that is immediately apparent is that, with the average value of these cars higher than the general runabout drivers may well need to be 40 plus in order to get car insurance cover at a reasonable premium, from Tesco Finance or anyone else.
