14 May 2009 Car insurance customers 'should work out total cost'

Drivers urged to think about overall cost of car insurance It is important to bear in mind overall costs when purchasing comprehensive car insurance, it has been claimed.

The British Insurance Brokers' Association pointed out a cheap policy that requires add-ons further down the line may not end up being a bargain after all.

It stated if people are tempted by cover that does not include a feature they need, they should consider how much extra they will need to pay later on.

The group explained if a driver intends to take their car to the continent but their cover does not include European insurance, they should find out how much that will cost.

Graeme Trudgill, technical and corporate affairs executive, suggested motorists should be thinking to themselves: "Ok, if I know it's going to cost fifty pounds extra if I go to France then I will bear that in mind when I get the quotes in the first instance."

Motorists going overseas with their car may also want to check their comprehensive cover does not become third party on leaving British soil.
