Performance Car Insurance

If you own a high performance car, you are likely to pay more for your insurance than with a standard car.

Statistically, high performance cars are more likely to be involved in accidents - and cost more to repair, especially if driven by younger owners.

Insurers argue that some modifications, for example lowered suspensions, can negatively affect handling.

This applies to a greater or lesser degree whether the car is kit-built, prestige, imported, modified, or simply has a powerful engine.

Cheaper Car Insurance For High Performance Vehicles

There are ways to cut your high performance car insurance bill - if you are careful. Here are a few useful ideas.

* Be aware of the difference between “sports” high performance, like a Porsche or a Mercedes, and a “modded-up” car, which can cost more to insure.
* Consider waiting until you are at least 30 years old. Premiums will fall both as a result of your age and also because, hopefully, you will have built up a no-claims history.
* Go to a specialist insurer who will have knowledge of your type of vehicle and suitable claims experience.
* Take an advanced driving course, for example from the Institute of Advanced Motorists.
