Get lower rates on 2013 Audi TT insurance

The cost of insuring your cars can be expensive, but you can get discounts that many people don’t even know exist. Certain discounts will be applied at the time of quoting, but some may not be applied and must be specifically requested before they will apply.

  • Early Signing – Select companies give a discount for switching policies prior to your current policy expiration. This can save 10% or more.
  • Military Rewards – Being on active duty in the military may qualify for rate reductions.
  • Save with a New Car – Putting insurance coverage on a new car can save up to 30% due to better safety requirements for new cars.
  • Distant Student – Any of your kids who attend school more than 100 miles from home and do not have a car may qualify for this discount.
  • 55 and Retired – Older drivers may qualify for a discount up to 10% on TT coverage.
  • Multi-car Discount – Buying coverage for more than one vehicle on one policy can get a discount on all vehicles.
  • Low Mileage – Low mileage vehicles can earn better rates on cars that stay parked.

As a disclaimer on discounts, most discounts do not apply the the whole policy. Most cut individual premiums such as comprehensive or collision. So despite the fact that it appears you would end up receiving a 100% discount, companies don’t profit that way. But all discounts will help reduce the cost of coverage.

Companies that possibly offer these money-saving discounts include:

Double check with all companies you are considering what discounts are available to you. Some discounts may not apply in your area.

Tailor your coverage to you

When it comes to choosing coverage for your personal vehicles, there is no single plan that fits everyone. Everyone’s needs are different.

For example, these questions may help highlight if you would benefit from an agent’s advice.

  • How much underlying liability do I need for an umbrella policy?
  • Which companies will insure high-risk drivers?
  • Do I need motorclub coverage?
  • What can I do if my company won’t pay a claim?
  • What is the ISO rating for a 2013 Audi TT?
  • Are my tools covered if they get stolen from my vehicle?
  • Am I covered when pulling a rental trailer?
  • Is rental equipment covered for theft or damage?

If you can’t answer these questions but you know they apply to you then you might want to talk to an insurance agent. If you don’t have a local agent, take a second and complete this form.

Don’t believe everything you hear

Insurance providers like Progressive, Geico, Allstate and State Farm regularly use television and radio advertisements. They all say the same thing that you can save if you move to their company. But how can every company say the same thing? This is how they do it.

Different companies have a preferred profile for the type of driver that is profitable for them. For example, a driver they prefer could be between the ages of 40 and 55, owns a home, and drives newer vehicles. A propective insured that hits that “sweet spot” will get the preferred rates and most likely will pay quite a bit less when switching companies.

Potential customers who don’t qualify for the “perfect” profile will have to pay a more expensive rate which usually ends up with the driver buying from a lower-cost company. The ads say “people who switch” not “everybody who quotes” save that much money. This is how insurance companies can advertise the way they do.

Because of the profiling, drivers must get as many comparisons as possible. It’s impossible to know which insurance company will fit your personal profile best.

Auto insurance 101

Understanding the coverages of a insurance policy helps when choosing appropriate coverage and the correct deductibles and limits. Policy terminology can be ambiguous and even agents have difficulty translating policy wording.

Comprehensive coverage (or Other than Collision)

This covers damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. A deductible will apply then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive coverage protects against claims like fire damage, hitting a deer and falling objects. The maximum amount you’ll receive from a claim is the actual cash value, so if the vehicle’s value is low it’s probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.

Collision coverage

Collision coverage pays for damage to your TT from colliding with another car or object. A deductible applies then the remaining damage will be paid by your insurance company.

Collision insurance covers things like rolling your car, driving through your garage door, colliding with another moving vehicle and sustaining damage from a pot hole. Collision is rather expensive coverage, so consider dropping it from vehicles that are 8 years or older. You can also increase the deductible to bring the cost down.

Uninsured Motorist or Underinsured Motorist insurance

This protects you and your vehicle’s occupants from other motorists when they either have no liability insurance or not enough. Covered claims include injuries sustained by your vehicle’s occupants and also any damage incurred to your 2013 Audi TT.

Since a lot of drivers only carry the minimum required liability limits, it doesn’t take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. For this reason, having high UM/UIM coverages should not be overlooked. Frequently the UM/UIM limits do not exceed the liability coverage limits.

Insurance for medical payments

Med pay and PIP coverage provide coverage for short-term medical expenses such as doctor visits, nursing services, dental work, prosthetic devices and hospital visits. The coverages can be used to fill the gap from your health insurance plan or if there is no health insurance coverage. It covers not only the driver but also the vehicle occupants and also covers if you are hit as a while walking down the street. PIP is not available in all states but can be used in place of medical payments coverage

Coverage for liability

Liability insurance will cover damages or injuries you inflict on a person or their property in an accident. This insurance protects YOU from legal claims by others. It does not cover damage to your own property or vehicle.

It consists of three limits, bodily injury per person, bodily injury per accident and property damage. You might see limits of 50/100/50 that means you have $50,000 bodily injury coverage, a total of $100,000 of bodily injury coverage per accident, and property damage coverage for $50,000. Another option is one number which is a combined single limit which limits claims to one amount without having the split limit caps.

Liability coverage pays for things such as pain and suffering, court costs, attorney fees, emergency aid and repair costs for stationary objects. How much coverage you buy is a decision to put some thought into, but buy as much as you can afford.
