CAR INSURANCE COSTS: BRAKES APPLIED BUT MORE PAIN IN STORE FOR 2011

Leave a comment

Tiger.co.uk, the insurance comparison site, today unveiled the latest results from Tiger Watch, its monthly car insurance price monitor.

The figures indicate that although year-on-year inflation across the first three months of this year was still an eye-watering 31.3% (and the March figure was a massive 36.3% versus a year ago), there was slightly better news for those yet to renew their policies in 2011. The study revealed that prices across January to March this year have held at December 2010 rates, indicating that policy inflation over the last 6 months has been a more palatable 3.1%. This followed 6 months of massive inflation in car insurance premiums between April and September 2010 that fuelled a 35% increase in prices across last year.

A spokesperson for Tiger.co.uk cautioned: “Although there appears to be more stability returning to the car insurance market in recent months, most drivers who are looking to renew their insurance over the next few months will still be looking at significant double-digit inflation in their policy prices, as increases implemented across the April to September 2010 period continue to be felt”.

The massive increases seen in 2010 prices were the result of insurers trying to get their businesses back into profitability following years of loss-making across the sector. This poor historical performance was caused by reductions in investment income earned by insurance companies, increases in fraudulent claims, increases in personal injury claims and the increased costs of accidents caused by uninsured or untraceable drivers.

Although 2011 is unlikely to see the overall level of inflation that was witnessed in 2010, Tiger.co.uk is still forecasting that premiums across the year will still show a 20% year-on-year increase, with the rate of inflation slowing as the year progresses to around 13% in the third quarter and 6% across the last three months of the year.

Within this there will of course be some sectors of the driving population who are harder hit than others. 2010 saw younger drivers in the 17 ” 22 year old age bracket particularly hard hit, with inflation estimated to be running at over 50%.

The Tiger.co.uk spokesperson continued: “We expect young drivers in particular to continue to see higher than average levels of inflation in 2011. As a result we are seeing a massive growth of interest in the telematics-based insurance products that are specifically designed for this group and for lower mileage drivers” more major insurers are signalling a move into this area. We will also be looking closely at the price changes of policies for younger women drivers in the light of the recent EU gender ruling that will almost certainly lead to sharper inflationary increases for this group in the future ” although this might not become apparent until next year.

With car insurance inflation still very much on the agenda in 2011 we would recommend that all motorists do not automatically renew their policies but take a little time to shop around for a better deal. Using car insurance comparison sites such as Tiger.co.uk takes only a few minutes and allows drivers to get scores of car insurance quotes and compare them on a like-for like basis”.

About Tiger.co.uk:

Tiger.co.uk is a trading name of Call Connection Ltd. Tiger.co.uk is a UK based, independent price comparison site, offering insurance quotes from over 130 motor insurance brands. Call Connection Ltd is authorised and regulated by the Financial Services Authority (number 308374).

Motorcycle Riders Choosing Greener Solutions Today

Leave a comment

[Grants Pass, Oregon] – March 31, 2011 – Many fans of motorcycles these days are making their own contribution to a greener world simply by virtue of the fact that they are choosing to ride a bike over a car, truck or other large vehicle. Due to their size, motorcycles naturally consume less power and this much is obvious to most people, but the fact that they also have greener options available to help enhance their reduced impact on the world around them might not be. One way that today’s riders are choosing to make a difference happens to be in the type of motorcycle batteries they decide to use, as well as the types of chargers that they employ for these types of batteries. By making certain choices, they are able to reduce the amount of effect they, as a rider, have on the ecology that they are a part of. The simple decision to use more environmentally sound batteries is making a big difference that might not even be noticed for quite a long time, but is definitely going to have an impact on the planet. Now that today’s biker fans have so many options, deciding on the best possible choices can certainly have quite a large effect.

One thing that many are coming to learn is that they can help the environmental causes they care about by choosing low pollution and low waste decisions. Caring about ecological issues is something that is not uncommon among bike fans since they are often out in natural areas with their bikes and thus come into more frequent contact with the environment around them than a typical car driver might. Even a fairly undramatic change, such as switching to a rechargeable motorcycle battery can make a huge impact on the amount of waste that is produced. Especially since a single nickel metal hydride battery can last as much as one thousand times longer than an alkaline battery. This is a very large change, but it is not expensive to make so it makes sense for many bike riders today.

In an effort to get better prices that are more closely aligned with their own budget realities, many consumers are turning to online web sites where they can peruse a selection of used cars for sale that may meet their needs.

Mods4cars announces 7 new SmartTOP roof controllers

Leave a comment

Mods4cars is announcing 7 new SmartTOP roof modules for the 2011 convertible season. The manufacturer reports that after-market roof controllers for the BMW 6 Convertible (F12), Mercedes Benz SLK (R172), Nissan 370Z Roadster, Renault Megane CC (III), Renault Wind, VW EOS (Facelift) and VW Golf VI Convertible will be available this year.

Ocean, NJ, March 15, 2011 — Mods4cars is announcing new convertible roof controllers for 7 cars. After-market SmartTOP modules for the BMW 6 Convertible (F12), the Mercedes Benz SLK (R172), and the Nissan 370Z Roadster will be available this year. Products for the French convertibles Renault Megane CC (III) and the Renault Wind will also be available this season. Mods4cars will also produce roof controllers for the German VW EOS (Facelift) and the new VW Golf VI Convertible in 2011.

All the new models will feature the SmartTOP’s two most important functions. Firstly, the One-Touch system allows the roof to be opened while driving; the roof can be operated up to a speed of about 40 km/h. All it takes is a quick push of a button inside the cabin, thereby eliminating the inconvenience of having to press and hold the roof button. Secondly, the roof can be controlled from a distance using the car’s existing remote fob without having to change or reprogram the original car key.

“Depending on the module, additional features can be added to these two main functions,” states PR representative Sven Tornow. He continues: “All the modules also feature a practical USB connector that permits our customers to comfortably download unlimited free software updates on their home computer.”

The new SmartTOP after-market roof controllers will start at 249 Euros + tax.

Modules for the following models are now available for purchase: Alfa, Audi, Bentley, BMW, Ferrari, Ford, Infiniti, Mazda, Mercedes, Mini, Opel, Peugeot, Porsche, Renault, Volkswagen and Volvo.

Further details and purchasing information: http://www.mods4cars.com

About Mods4cars:
Mods4cars was founded in 2002 with the idea to add a highly demanded feature to the otherwise almost perfect Porsche Boxster: Comfort One-Touch roof operation while driving at slow speeds. The resulting product offered not only that, but also allowed quick and easy installation by just swapping out a relay box, thus leaving no traces and no permanent changes on the vehicle. The first SmartTOP roof controller was born.

The success of their first products in Germany and Europe prompted them in late 2004 to move operations to the USA, to be able to serve the American market as well as all other English speaking countries such as Australia, UK and South Africa from one central location. Their business has grown to a full-fledged international corporation with an office in California and a full line of innovative products as well as distributors and installation partners all over the globe.

Being highly specialized in the development and distribution of aftermarket roof- and comfort controllers since 2002 allows them to offer an unsurpassed level of competence and product quality. Their main goal is optimization of each individual product to a maximum in compatibility, usability and intuitive operation. They put greatest effort into development and quality checks of all their products to achieve this goal and meet all expectations of their customers.

The extraordinary success of their products is also based on the great communication with their customers, which usually already starts for each new product during the development and prototyping phase.

Car Owners Benefiting From Finding Cars For Less Online

Leave a comment

[London, UK] – March 13, 2011 – A lot of cars are coming onto the secondary market these days after a rough economic period that left many in the United States, as well as other countries around the globe, in need of low cost vehicles. The secondary market has been booming due to an increase in the cost of new cars and trucks as manufacturers meet with the effects of social pressure to change how they go about designing and building their vehicles. This has caused some upheaval, but with more and more people coming online as the access to the web spreads around the globe, more people are deciding that the time has come for them to check out selection at online sites. With so many used cars for sale which can be viewed both close to the consumers residence or at a distance, there are a lot of people thinking that they might just want to check prices over the web first. This works out for sellers, as well, who can skip the hassles and high cost of posting what they have for sale in a traditional print publication that can often have negligible results.

One web site that has become a stand out model of car sales via the net is Just Good Cars, a site entirely devoted to the buying and selling of used vehicles by owners and dealers online. This gives consumers a much wider array of potential sources of cars for sale that they can choose from. Even those interested in finding cars in other countries can do so easily via Just Good Cars which serves the international market. In addition to allowing providing car shoppers with a first class and easy to use resource, the site allows those with a vehicle they would like to place an ad for to do so free of charge. This is boosting the number of vehicles available to consumers who want to avoid popular classified ads sites that have been in the news lately for less than attractive situations that took place there. With Just Good Cars, the focus is only on vehicles and the site is maintained rather than a typical free for all type experience.

Those looking to learn more about Just Good Cars can take a look at http://www.justgoodcars.com/ where they will be able to find news and car reviews along with a full selection of vehicles for sale.
