Who can receive car insurance discounts and why @ lv.com

Published by on Dec 6th, 2007, 4 Comments

liverpoolVictoria Who can receive car insurance discounts and why @ lv.comIf you’re like me and do almost (don’t laugh guys icon smile Who can receive car insurance discounts and why @ lv.com ) everything online then I am sure you searched, at least once, for car insurance quotes on the internet. The results may have been disappointing or great I can’t tell, but I am sure you will after I tell you more about LV.com.

LV.com or Liverpool Victoria, is one of the biggest insurance and financial services company in the United Kingdom. These guys made a promise to find you the best insurance quotes for your car and I think they manage to do it pretty well. A lot of insurers may not tell that you are entitled to receive discount car insurance just because they want to get the most off your pocket.

This is not going to happen with LV.com because over 50s car insurance is cheaper with them. The reasons are older people are much more attentive, don’t get as many speeding tickets as the young and drive a lot less miles.

Womens car insurance is another category that gets discounted rates. We all know men cause more accidents on the roads, than women so this is just one reason why they get it. As a verdict, even if you’re not over 50s or a woman I advise you to give it a go with LV.com and see if you can qualify for anything cheaper.

Novated lease financing

car brokerage Novated lease financing

A novated lease has become an increasingly popular form of vehicle financing over recent years. A novated lease combines many features of more traditional forms of vehicle finance to deliver some attractive benefits for both employers and employees.

A novated Lease is an agreement between your employer, yourself (the employee) and the financier, where the obligation to meet the repayments under the finance lease is with the employer.

With a novated lease agreement, you own the vehicle and have the right to take it with you should you change jobs and, structured correctly, there may be tax advantages with your remuneration package.

As with other leasing structures, repayments with a novated lease are flexible and amounts depend on the term, interest rate, amount borrowed and the residual payment.

The best kept auto secret

Published by on Oct 11th, 2007, 6 Comments

I have been driving (legally) for over five years. One would think I would have noticed the little secret on my dash that was staring me right in the face the whole time. I didn’t and I bet you probably haven’t either.

I’m going to share with you my little secret so you will no longer look like Ace Ventura on your way to the gas station or put your neck at risk of uncomfort or injury.

If you look at your gas guage, you will see a small icon of a gas pump. The handle of the gas pump will extend out on either the left or right side of the pump. If your tank is on the left, the handle will be on the left. If your tank is on the right, the handle will be on the right (see photo below). It is that simple!

carseeek.thumbnail Website review: CarSeek dot com

I’m in the market for a new ride and was looking for some opinions online. I promtly pointed my browser to Google and came accross carseek.com.

The domain name fitted the bill and I logged onto the site. What I found was a clean designed website based mostly in text with some graphics to house the content. Being mostly texted based this resulted in a quick loading time which was pleasing. At first glance you can easily navigate to what your looking for with three graphic buttons calling for your attention on the top right of the site – reviews, buy a car and finance. On the left a box houses the quick car seach function which you can use to find a quote for exacly what set of wheels your looking for. That prety much summed up what I was looking for at that point – What car to buy, how I will finance it and how I will find it. Carseek was off to a good start. Staying on the index I scrolled down to find the latest car reviews featuring cars such as the 2008 Ford Mustang or the latest Ford F-250. This provided some tasty reading materiaal while I tried to find my car of choice.

Using the top left car quote feature I selected in the drop down list “Audi” and immediatly the lower drop down listed all the available Audi models. Not a page refresh in sight. Rocking. I proceeded to surf to the Audi A3 page (a car in my price range) and was presented with a form to fill in to get my quote and some stats on the A3. No need to call the dealer they contact you!! With that out of the way and basically done with what I was looking for online. I prompted to stay on the carseek site surfing through the car reviews section which has thousands of entries just in case you haven’t made up your mind to which car you want. I also popped in to the articles section which presented articles of other automotive topics such as road rage and child safety. Carseek.com turned out to be a very fast responding informative website giving me just what I wanted and more in a clean design to ensure fast loading. Carseek has been bookmarked and I think you should to.
