Motorists are being hard hit with rises in car insurance and petrol and many are thinking of choosing a more fuel efficient car when they next buy one.
According to research carried out by moneysupermarket.com, almost 50 per cent of those questioned believe that they will purchase a more fuel efficient model next time as they try to save money on motoring costs. Around 10 per cent said the price of car insurance will have a direct bearing on which model they buy and some people said that they will be using public transport instead as driving has become too expensive.
Pete Harrison, car insurance expert at moneysupermarket.com commented: “With prices on the up it is more important than ever drivers ensure they are shopping around for the best deals on insurance, those who do will reap rewards and make their hard earned cash go further.”
The comparison site also warns drivers not to get involved in fronting for their children which is illegal.
