Automobile Insurance Quotes

When shopping for insurance coverage there are multiple ways to compare rate quotes from insurance coverage companies in your area. The recommended way to find competitive 2000 Land Rover Discovery Series II insurance rates consists of obtaining rate quotes online. This can be done using a couple different methods.

  1. One of the simplest ways to find the lowest comparison rates is to use a rate comparison form like this one (opens in new window). This form saves time by eliminating separate quotation requests to each individual insurance coverage company. Completing one form gets you coverage quotes from multiple companies.
  2. A different way to compare rate quotes requires a trip to each company website to complete their respective quote request forms. For instance, let’s say you want to compare Geico, 21st Century and GMAC. To get each rate you have to go to every website to enter your coverage information, which is why the first method is more popular.

  3. The least efficient method of comparing rate quotes is to drive around to insurance agents’ offices. The ability to buy insurance online eliminates the need for an insurance agent unless you require the personal advice that only a license agent can provide. However, consumers can compare online quotes but buy from a local insurance agent and you’ll learn how to do that later.

However you get your quotes, make darn sure you compare the exact same coverages on every quote. If you use different limits and deductibles on each one it will be next to impossible to make an equal comparison. Having just a slight variation in coverage limits may cause a big price difference. And when quoting insurance coverage, remember that comparing a large number of companies helps you find the best price.

Save on Land Rover Discovery Series II insurance

Companies that sell car insurance don’t always list all available discounts very well, so we break down some of the best known and also the lesser-known savings tricks you should be using.

  • No Charge for an Accident – Certain companies will forgive one accident before raising your premiums if you are claim-free for a particular time prior to the accident.
  • Payment Discounts – By paying your policy upfront rather than paying monthly you may reduce your total bill.
  • Paperwork-free – Some insurance companies may give you up to $50 for buying a policy and signing up online.
  • Save over 55 – If you qualify as a senior citizen, you may qualify for better auto insurance rates for Discovery Series II coverage.
  • Low Mileage – Keeping the miles down on your Land Rover can earn better rates on cars that stay parked.
  • Anti-theft System – Cars that have factory anti-theft systems can help prevent theft and therefore earn up to a 10% discount.
  • Life Insurance – Companies who offer life insurance give a break if you buy life insurance.
  • Air Bag Discount – Vehicles equipped with air bags or motorized seat belts can receive discounts up to 30%.
  • New Car Discount – Adding a new car to your policy can be considerably cheaper since new cars are generally safer.
  • Employee of Federal Government – Simply working for the federal government could cut as much as 10% off for Discovery Series II coverage with select insurance companies.

It’s important to understand that most discounts do not apply to the overall cost of the policy. Most only reduce the price of certain insurance coverages like physical damage coverage or medical payments. Just because it seems like it’s possible to get free car insurance, auto insurance companies aren’t that generous.

Tailor your coverage to you

When it comes to choosing adequate coverage for your vehicles, there really is no “best” method to buy coverage. Your needs are not the same as everyone else’s and a cookie cutter policy won’t apply. These are some specific questions may help highlight if your situation could use an agent’s help.

  • Who is covered by my policy?
  • What is the ISO rating for a 2000 Land Rover Discovery Series II?
  • Do I have any recourse if my insurance company denies a claim?
  • Should I get collision insurance on every vehicle?
  • Does my insurance cover my expensive audio equipment?
  • Am I missing any policy discounts?
  • Do I need an umbrella policy?
  • Am I covered if hit by an uninsured driver?

If you don’t know the answers to these questions but you know they apply to you, you may need to chat with a licensed agent. If you don’t have a local agent, complete this form or you can also visit this page to select a carrier

Car insurance coverages for a Land Rover Discovery Series II

Learning about specific coverages of insurance can be of help when determining appropriate coverage at the best deductibles and correct limits. Policy terminology can be difficult to understand and nobody wants to actually read their policy. These are the usual coverages found on the average insurance policy.

UM/UIM (Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist) coverage – This gives you protection from other motorists when they either have no liability insurance or not enough. Covered claims include medical payments for you and your occupants and also any damage incurred to your Land Rover Discovery Series II.

Because many people only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, it doesn’t take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. So UM/UIM coverage is important protection for you and your family.

Auto liability – This can cover injuries or damage you cause to other’s property or people by causing an accident. This coverage protects you from legal claims by others. Liability doesn’t cover damage to your own property or vehicle.

Split limit liability has three limits of coverage: bodily injury per person, bodily injury per accident and property damage. You commonly see liability limits of 25/50/25 which means a limit of $25,000 per injured person, 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 such as repair bills for other people’s vehicles, attorney fees, structural damage, loss of income and medical services. How much liability should you purchase? That is a decision to put some thought into, but consider buying as large an amount as possible.

Collision – This coverage pays for damage to your Discovery Series II from colliding with another car or object. You will need to pay your deductible then your collision coverage will kick in.

Collision can pay for things such as damaging your car on a curb, sustaining damage from a pot hole, colliding with a tree and crashing into a building. This coverage can be expensive, so consider dropping it from vehicles that are older. It’s also possible to bump up the deductible to bring the cost down.

Comprehensive auto coverage – Comprehensive insurance pays to fix your vehicle from damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. You first must pay your deductible then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive can pay for things such as vandalism, fire damage, a tree branch falling on your vehicle, hail damage and damage from a tornado or hurricane. The maximum amount your insurance company will pay is the ACV or actual cash value, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle’s value it’s probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.

Medical payments and PIP coverage – Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance kick in for short-term medical expenses for dental work, chiropractic care, surgery, rehabilitation expenses and funeral costs. They are often used to fill the gap from your health insurance policy or if you are not covered by health insurance. Coverage applies to all vehicle occupants and also covers any family member struck as a pedestrian. PIP coverage is not available in all states and gives slightly broader coverage than med pay
