Pay by the mile & by time

You can save between £100-£500 a year by effectively paying for your car insurance by pay-as-you-go! With a new technology called ‘insuretech’ – making insurance cheaper on anything such as bicycles and expensive items.

“It gives you that flexibility to do a fair comparison before you start a journey – to say, ‘Shall I walk it, shall I take the bus, or shall I take the train?'” says the company’s chief executive James Blackham.

Ministers were also told that they need to “get a grip” when it comes to implementing an effective nationwide charging network, which many identify as one of the main barriers to encouraging electric car use.

Get your car ready for winter.

We recommend that you regularly check the condition of your cars tyres condition and pressure. Ensure that they have plenty of tread; you can do this with a 20p coin, hold the coin in the tread and as long as the rubber comes above the border around the coin, your car’s tyres are legal.

You don’t want to get stuck in the middle of nowhere because of a flat battery, so it’s worth taking your car into a garage to have its battery tested. Make sure the battery is in good condition and fully charged.

If you’re worried about your car condition, speak to us or contact your nearest garage and get some advice!
