If you decided to buy your first car recently and you also decided to buy a small car then you have made a great decision, small cars in the long run will save you thousands of dollars, cheaper parts are things like tires which for a big car can cost a lot more, one of the main things is petrol, you can go though double the amount in a big car as you would expect when traveling the same distance with a small car, also there is registration of the car, because in most countrys if the bigger the veachiel the more the cost of the registration is, so if you do not need a big car then why buy it?
You are better of buying a easy small car that will not cost you extra money you don’t need to spend. And then it comes down to insurance, some insurance companies will charge you exactly the same as a large car or even a truck, you need to be aware of what costs what because you can be out of a lot of money no matter what kind of car you have and this is especially true if you are young and careless. as we are going to say over and over during this blog, no matter how boring it is, it pays to do your homework when it comes to car insurance. There are some companies out there that do the right thing like for example:
- GEO
- AAMI
- ING
- SAFEAUTO
- AAA
- STATEFARM
Just to name a few, companies like these offer disclosure statements that will explain to you how it will work and what the costs are, they are usually made up of boring legal jargon but you can visit one of the companies and have them explain the information if it is difficult to understand.
Remember being a small car you are entilted to being charged less for insurance so if you find some where expensive go else where because you don’t want to get ripped off.
