Car insurance and where to get the best deal is something plenty of people will want to know about, so here we’ll take a look at some of the ways you can shop around for the best car insurance quote as well as make sure you get the best cover for your money.

The first place you should always start when searching for car insurance is with the local Yellow Pages or Business Pages directory. There is always a huge choice of all the most competitive car insurance companies that will advertise in there. In fact many will take out whole page or even two page ads to try and hook into what is one of the biggest and most lucrative markets out there.

First of all, go through the directory and shortlist the car insurance companies that jump out of the page at you. That may not include all the biggest ads either. Often the businesses that will take out the biggest ads often pay for those ads with an added hike on your premium. So include smaller ads as well and either use post-its to mark the pages and circle the ads you like the look of in a highlighting marker pen, or if you’re feeling really finicky, write them all down on a piece of paper for later reference.

Then simply pick up the telephone and start dialing.

You should aim to get 20 or 30 quotes and by doing so you will soon see which car insurance companies are offering the best deals. Always make a note of the best deal as you get it and then when you speak to the next company, you can tell them you already got such and such a quote from so and so, and could they beat it? If not, move on to the next one until they can bet it.

Then use that new best quote to beat down further companies until it is obvious you won’t get a better quote. Then simply go with the one that was either outright cheapest, or was one of the cheapest that offered the most comprehensive cover for the price.

And that’s how you find out where to get the best deal when it comes to car insurance!
