Place of Residence: Urban Dwellers tend to pay a higher car insurance premium than rural dwellers. Again this has to do with a perceived risk to the vehicle.

Drivers Age: The younger and less experience you have driving the higher your car insurance quotations will be. In the case of young 'learner' drivers seeking insurance under an experienced driver's cover the cost of insurance can be very low.
Making Claims: Read insurance policies carefully before purchasing. Many have clauses making the person insured responsible for paying a minimum amount for damages before the insurance company incurs any costs. For example, your insurance policy covers claims after €200 worth of damages. That means if the garage charges €300 for repairing damages, the insurance company will only pay €100 if your claim is accepted.
Be Honest: Finally, be sure that all the information you provide is true. Do not be tempted to give details that are not true to try bring down the cost of your car insurance quotations. This is unlawful and you will lose out should you try to make a claim and the car insurance company discovers your details are untrue. Whenever your circumstances change notify your insurance provider immediately so that they can update your records.
