  • Am I covered if my car is in a flood?
  • Does my insurance cover a custom paint job?

Coverage specifics

Having a good grasp of your policy aids in choosing the right coverages and proper limits and deductibles. The terms used in a policy can be difficult to understand and reading a policy is terribly boring. Below you’ll find typical coverage types found on most insurance policies.

Comprehensive coverage – Comprehensive insurance coverage pays for damage from a wide range of events other than collision. A deductible will apply and the remainder of the damage will be paid by comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive coverage protects against things such as hail damage, falling objects and fire damage. The highest amount you’ll receive from a claim is the cash value of the vehicle, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle’s value it’s not worth carrying full coverage.

Collision coverages – Collision coverage pays for damage to your SLS AMG GT caused by collision with another car or object. You have to pay a deductible then your collision coverage will kick in.

Collision insurance covers claims like driving through your garage door, hitting a mailbox, crashing into a ditch and sustaining damage from a pot hole. Paying for collision coverage can be pricey, so consider removing coverage from lower value vehicles. You can also raise the deductible to save money on collision insurance.

Medical payments coverage and PIP – Med pay and PIP coverage reimburse you for immediate expenses such as chiropractic care, X-ray expenses, doctor visits and prosthetic devices. They are often used in conjunction with a health insurance policy or if you do not have health coverage. It covers all vehicle occupants and also covers if you are hit as a while walking down the street. Personal injury protection coverage is not universally available and gives slightly broader coverage than med pay

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage – This coverage protects you and your vehicle when other motorists are uninsured or don’t have enough coverage. It can pay for hospital bills for your injuries and damage to your Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG GT.

Since a lot of drivers have only the minimum liability required by law, their liability coverage can quickly be exhausted. This is the reason having UM/UIM coverage is important protection for you and your family. Normally your uninsured/underinsured motorist coverages are similar to your liability insurance amounts.

Liability – This coverage protects you from damages or injuries you inflict on other’s property or people by causing an accident. This insurance protects YOU from legal claims by others, and does not provide coverage for your injuries or vehicle damage.

Split limit liability has three limits of coverage: bodily injury for each person, bodily injury for the entire accident, and a limit for property damage. As an example, you may have values of 50/100/50 that means you have a $50,000 limit per person for injuries, $100,000 for the entire accident, and $50,000 of coverage for damaged propery. Another option is one limit called combined single limit (CSL) which limits claims to one amount without having the split limit caps.

Liability coverage protects against things such as medical services, repair costs for stationary objects and pain and suffering. How much coverage you buy is your choice, but it’s cheap coverage so purchase higher limits if possible.

More effort can pay off

We’ve covered quite a bit of information on how to lower your 2014 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG GT insurance rates. The most important thing to understand is the more rate comparisons you have, the higher your chance of finding lower rates. You may even discover the lowest premiums are with a smaller regional carrier. These smaller insurers may often insure only within specific states and give getter rates than their larger competitors like Allstate, Geico and Progressive.

Cheaper insurance can be sourced both online and with local insurance agents, and you should be comparing both in order to have the best price selection to choose from. A few companies do not offer online price quotes and usually these smaller companies provide coverage only through local independent agents.

The ultimate goal is to buy a smart amount of coverage at an affordable rate while not skimping on critical coverages.
