So you are planning on buying a new car that’s great! And may I add congratulations! It is highly recommended that before you purchase your dream car you should shop around for reliable and cost effective auto insurance.

Your premium is based in part on the car’s sticker price, the cost to repair it, its overall safety record and the likelihood of theft. Many insurers offer discounts for features that reduce the risk of injuries or theft, such as air bags, anti-lock brakes, daytime running lights and anti-theft devices.

Preventing theft will help you get better auto insurance rates.

Naturally, cars that are favorite targets for thieves cost more to insure. You might want to take that in consideration when buying your future car. Anti theft devices are a must and the more you have installed the better. Auto insurance companies know that anti theft devices substantially reduce the chances of your car being stolen and they will quote lower auto insurance rates when you have the devices installed.

I believe that installing anti theft devices will give you peace of mind. It is a known fact that when a thief looks through the window of your new car and sees a blinking red light indicating that the immobilizer is functioning and active he will most likely turn around and leave. Sometimes you might like to add some more devices like; Anti-Theft Steering Wheel Locks, car alarms and wheel clubs.

Save yours and others lives and still save money

You can reduce auto insurance rates and reduce the risk of accidents and injuries by adding safety features to your car such as; air-bags, anti- lock brakes and daytime running lights. The more safety features added to your car will help you save lives and save money at the same time. When buying a new car these safety features will cost more, don’t worry about that too much because in the long run you will see that your auto insurance payments will be lower and when you plan on selling your car in the future you will find a buyer in a short period of time. Not to mention that all these safety features make your car of higher value and therefore, they are a good investment.
