No doubt you’ve seen the adverts of ladies in perfection singing about how they come into possession of cheaper insurance - with the car they drive they’ll need it - or a hairdressing salon on impulse bursting into song and dance at a clients amazing deal.
.
.but is the new quiver of women-only car insurance really while in the manner tha good as it sounds?As it turns out - not necessarily. Despite the claims of the ‘pink insurers’, women can still end up paying not quite as plenty of as men for their car insurance. It’s all down to individual circumstances.For example, a 35 year old joined woman driving a Citroen C5 could get quoted between £225 and £291 with women-only insurers, so far with mainstream insurers could get a quote as low as £212 or even £198. Most insurers will put under the hammer a cheaper quote for women drivers, regardless of their customer base.It’s not all bad bulletin for women thinking about car insurance though. Most women-only insurers offer added freshs to their policies that you may not get from a mainstream company, such as handbag curtain, and a labyrinth of ‘female-friendly’ repairers that don’t have the patronising perspective towards women drivers that’s so stereotypical.Having said that, most insurers will offer a contents cover with their policies anyway, although it may be an extra facet rather than a standard one. And most garages any more understand that women can know as much about cars as men, and will not take kindly to being sneered at by a burly mechanic. So is the ‘we protect females’ attitude from insurers actually necessary?The basis line is, male or female, look at a motor insurance code for what it can offer you, not your gender. Get several car insurance quotes from both mainstream and women-only companies, and you’re bound to find one that suits you.
