Supplementary notes

Values are the average of five cheapest quotes available for a 45-year-old driver parked on private drive, driven 5,000 miles per year, average policy excess of 200 GBP, and five years NCD.

The source adds the following information: "Not surprisingly, we found that the cost of car insurance increases with the underlying value of the car. This makes sense since a more expensive car requires a larger payout by the insurer in case of theft, and typically costs more to repair in case of damage. For example, a 45-year-old driver would pay around £575 to insure a £12,000 Ford Fiesta, or £812 to insure a £33,000 Mercedes Benz A Class 220.)"
