Beginners to comparison shopping may think buying low-cost 2000 insurance is more work than they want to put in. Lowering your doesn't have to be difficult. You just need to take a few minutes getting comparison quotes from different insurance companies. This can be done by completing this short form.

What factors impact the rate you pay?

Car insurance premiums on a 2000 will vary greatly based upon several criteria. Taken into consideration are:

• The performance level of your 2000
• Your accident history
• Home and auto can earn discounts
• Pleasure use vs. commuting use
• Special coverage such as replacement cost
• Your claim history
• Having current coverage saves
• Whether you rent or own your home

An additional factor that can impact is the year of the vehicle. New vehicles have a higher value than older models so repair costs are higher which will push premiums up. On the flip side, newer vehicles may have safety features like pedestrian detection, tire pressure monitors, and autonomous braking so those may give discounted rates.

Liability insurance

Liability insurance can cover damages or injuries you inflict on people or other property. Liability insurance covers things such as emergency aid, pain and suffering, and medical services. Liability insurance is relatively cheap so you should buy as much as you can afford.

Collision insurance

This coverage covers damage to your resulting from a collision with an object or car. You have to pay a deductible and then insurance will cover the remainder. Collision coverage for your 2000 can be pricey, so consider dropping it from older vehicles. It's also possible to raise the deductible to get cheaper .

Comprehensive protection

This coverage pays to fix your vehicle from damage that is not covered by collision coverage. You first have to pay a deductible and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage. The maximum amount you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the actual cash value, so if the vehicle's value is low it's probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist (UM/UIM)

This protects you and your vehicle when other motorists either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. Because many people 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 is a good idea.

Medical expense coverage

Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP provide coverage for expenses such as doctor visits, EMT expenses, and X-ray expenses. They are used in conjunction with a health insurance plan or if you lack health insurance entirely. PIP is not an option in every state but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage.
