Insurance rates on a 2003 can be significantly different depending on several factors. Some of these factors include:

• A clean driving record keeps rates low
• Better credit means lower rates
• Male drivers pay higher rates
• Higher deductibles save money
• Safety rating of your 2003
• No claims lowers premiums
• Maintaining coverage lowers rates
• Whether you own your home

One last important factor that helps determine the rate you pay on your is the year of manufacture. A newer vehicle cost more so the cost to replace them may end up costing you more. But new models may have options including active head restraints, an advanced theft deterrent system, and lane departure warning system that may help provide discounts that lower premiums.

Liability auto insurance - This coverage provides protection from damage that occurs to people or other property in an accident. Liability coverage protects against things like legal defense fees, bail bonds, and repair bills for other people's vehicles. Coverage is generally pretty cheap so purchase as large an amount as possible.

Collision coverage - Collision insurance pays to fix your vehicle from damage resulting from a collision with another car or object. You first must pay a deductible then your collision coverage will kick in. Collision coverage for your 2003 can be pricey, so you might think about dropping it from vehicles that are 8 years or older. Another option is to choose a higher deductible to save money on collision insurance.

Comprehensive (Other than Collision) - This coverage will pay to fix damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. A deductible will apply then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage. The highest amount you'll receive from a claim is the ACV or actual cash value, so if the vehicle is not worth much consider removing comprehensive coverage.

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage - Your UM/UIM coverage gives you protection when the "other guys" either have no liability insurance or not enough. Since many drivers only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, their liability coverage can quickly be exhausted. For this reason, having high UM/UIM coverages is very important.

Medical expense insurance - Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance pay for short-term medical expenses for things like nursing services, prosthetic devices, and dental work. The coverages can be used in conjunction with a health insurance policy or if there is no health insurance coverage. Personal Injury Protection is not universally available but can be used in place of medical payments coverage.
