Within the EU it is no longer legal for insurance companies to consider the insured's gender when calculating their insurance risk. As a result insurance costs for women (who were previously considered a lower risk than men) have now increased. One can find cheap car insurance by carrying out a comparison quote on line or over the telephone. Some insurers (for example direct line and Admiral) do not offer quotes via comparison companies, so it is necessary to contact them directly (via their websites or call centres). An alternative way to access a wide range of insurers' quotes would be to use an insurance broker. Although you would pay a fee for their expertise, they can use this expertise to find a cheaper or better value policy.
