2005 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution Car Insurance Cost – 5 Discounts for Best Prices

Price shopping your Driversauto insurance can be a challenge for people who are beginners to online insurance quotes. Drivers have so many options available that it can be a big hassle to find the perfect company for you.

Finding insurance coverage

Most major insurance companies give insurance quotes from their websites. Comparing prices online is quite easy as you just enter your coverage preferences as requested by the quote form. After you submit the form their rating system gets your driving record and credit report and generates a price based on the data you entered.

Being able to quote online makes comparing rates easy, but the process of having to visit each company’s website and repetitively type in the same information is repetitive and time-consuming. But it’s very important to compare as many rates as possible in order to get the lowest price.

Compare rates the easy way

A quicker way to find cheaper rates uses one form that analyzes rates from several companies at one time. It’s a real time-saver, requires much less work on your part, and makes online shopping a little more enjoyable. As soon as you send your information, it is quoted and you can select your choice of the quotes returned. If one or more price quotes are lower than your current rates, you simply finish the application and purchase coverage. This process can be completed in a matter of minutes and can result in significant savings.

Will just any policy work for me?

When buying adequate coverage for your personal vehicles, there is no “best” method to buy coverage. Everyone’s needs are different.

For example, these questions might help in determining whether you will benefit from professional help.

  • Are my tools covered if they get stolen from my vehicle?
  • Do I have coverage when making deliveries for my home business?
  • Does my policy cover my teen driver if they drive my company car?
  • How high should my medical payments coverage be?
  • Should I waive the damage coverage when renting a car?
  • I don’t drive much so do I pay less?
  • Am I covered if my car is in a flood?

If you don’t know the answers to these questions but a few of them apply then you might want to talk to a licensed insurance agent. To find lower rates from a local agent, simply complete this short form.

Insurance coverage considerations

Knowing the specifics of your insurance policy helps when choosing which coverages you need and the correct deductibles and limits. Insurance terms can be confusing and nobody wants to actually read their policy.

Comprehensive insurance – This covers damage that is not covered by collision coverage. A deductible will apply and the remainder of the damage will be paid by comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive coverage pays for claims such as damage from flooding, hitting a bird, a broken windshield and vandalism. The highest amount you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the market value of your vehicle, so if the vehicle’s value is low it’s not worth carrying full coverage.

Collision coverages – This coverage pays for damage to your Lancer Evolution resulting from a collision with an object or car. You have to pay a deductible and then insurance will cover the remainder.

Collision coverage pays for claims such as backing into a parked car, crashing into a building and hitting a parking meter. This coverage can be expensive, so consider removing coverage from vehicles that are 8 years or older. Drivers also have the option to increase the deductible to bring the cost down.

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist (UM/UIM) – Uninsured or Underinsured Motorist coverage protects you and your vehicle’s occupants when the “other guys” either have no liability insurance or not enough. Covered claims include injuries sustained by your vehicle’s occupants as well as damage to your Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution.

Since many drivers only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, it only takes a small accident to exceed their coverage. So UM/UIM coverage is very important.

Liability coverage – Liability coverage provides protection from damage or injury you incur to other’s property or people that is your fault. It consists of three limits, bodily injury per person, bodily injury per accident and property damage. Your policy might show limits of 25/50/25 that translate to $25,000 bodily injury coverage, a per accident bodily injury limit of $50,000, and a total limit of $25,000 for damage to vehicles and property.

Liability can pay for claims like medical services, attorney fees, court costs, repair bills for other people’s vehicles and structural damage. How much coverage you buy is a personal decision, but it’s cheap coverage so purchase as high a limit as you can afford.

Med pay and Personal Injury Protection (PIP) – Med pay and PIP coverage reimburse you for short-term medical expenses like funeral costs, rehabilitation expenses and hospital visits. They are used to fill the gap from your health insurance program or if you are not covered by health insurance. Medical payments and PIP cover not only the driver but also the vehicle occupants and also covers if you are hit as a while walking down the street. Personal Injury Protection is not an option in every state and gives slightly broader coverage than med pay
