By Blogger Kris Oldland

As one of the most famous names in motoring the Jaguar brand defines style, elegance and quality. So it is no surprise that when a new brand line is launched there is always some what of a stir amongst the motoring fraternity.
However, this time the Coventry based luxury car giant is announcing its latest line, the XJ with even more splendour than usual and other than raising the profile of their latest dream on wheels they are also quite admirably hoping to raise some serious money for charity at the same time.

In an effort to raise over a million pounds for the UK based children’s charity the NSPCC the kind folk at Jaguar are offering all performance car enthusiasts the opportunity to get their hands on the first customer-ready model before anybody else in their new prize giveaway.

Entrance to the competition costs £125 per ticket and the good news for Jaguar fans is that they can buy as many tickets as they want to improve their chances of winning this fantastic motor which is retailing at a cool £62,000.
The competition was launched by Geoff Cousins, the managing director of Jaguar UK who commented on the new line saying “Our new Jaguar XJ is a blend of stunning design, intuitive technology and innovative thinking” Scheduled for general release at the beginning of 2010; the XJ is available in four different specifications: luxury, premium luxury, portfolio and supersport.
All the money that is raised through the promotion is to be delivered to the charity’s three year-year funding drive, which is aiming to improve the service on helplines which offer children and also adults concerned about young peoples welfare a line of communication.

However should you be the person lucky enough to win this motoring delight you certainly want to ensure that your Jaguar insurance is up to date should you be intending to stop off in Chislehurst in Bromley, London as it has recently awarded with the dubious award of having the highest amount of motor claims involving theft within the United Kingdom.

Also residents of Wingate, Cleveland and Redbridge, Ilford may want to make sure that they have a strong policy in place as well as a reliable vehicle alarm as both areas finished high on the list of vehicle theft hotspots as revealed by the study published by comparison website moneysupermarket.com.
Head of Motor insurance at the comparison site Steve Sweeney commented "The research reveals a broad mix of places across the country are at risk, highlighting the issue that no matter where you live there is always a chance you could become a victim of theft and motorists should take this risk seriously,"
Sweeney also urged drivers to remove any valuable from their vehicles every time they leave no matter how short the stop as the temptation of an opportunist crime can often lead to the full theft of the car particularly when the vehicle is a non-standard or performance car studies have shown.

How to Find Cheap Car Insurance

Finding Cheap Car Insurance Online
By Dave Healey

Finding cheap car insurance can be like looking for a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Everybody is looking to make savings on their annual motor insurance premiums as the recession bites. We offer 7 proven money saving tips that will help you purchase cheaper cover online.

1. Improve you car's security to deter theft

Virtually all modern cars and newly bought vehicles have in built anti-theft devices and alarms. As long as they are approved by the UK Government testing agency known as Thatcham, you will receive substantial discounts for implementing one.
Extra and additional security measures such as window and glass etching of your cars number plate details and engine number will command further discounts with some insurance companies.

2. Pay for the cover upfront

You could save as much as twenty five percent on your annual premium charges if you pay for the whole years cover upfront, at the time of purchase. Most car insurers charge this amount in interest over and above the basic premium cost, for the privilege of paying for the cover in installments or by credit card. Additionally avoid untried pay as you go insurance schemes - you may be in for a very unpleasant surprise.

3. Do not change cover mid-term of the policy

It is also a wise move not to change your car insurance provider in the middle of the current policy term. Primarily it is going to cost you more, as canceling an existing policy will only get you a small return on your annual premium and not a pro-rata payout for the amount of time you have left. Secondly it is highly likely that car insurance premium rates will have hardened or risen over the course of a policy and changing mid term will only ensure you pay more earlier.

4. Do you own more than one car? Try a Multi Car policy

If you own more than one car and perhaps have separate policies for these or for your wife, partner or children it would be worth your while investigating multiple car or mini fleet family policies. You may be surprised at how much you can save on annual premiums if you insure multiple vehicles under the same cover. Quite often the cost of insuring two cars can be virtually the same as one, particularly if one car is much more expensive than the other.

5. Keep an eye out for Group Discount policies.

Many car insurance companies offer premium discounts on cover if you belong to certain clubs or are affiliated with certain organizations. When purchasing online keep a look out for affinity codes, usually your membership number, in order to obtain what are often substantial discounts for being a member of a certain risk group. Visit a specialist car insurance company or apply for your groups car insurance scheme through your motoring or leisure organization.

6. Take on some of the risk yourself!

You can substantially lower premiums if you take on some of the risk that the policy covers, yourself. You can do this by increasing excesses, which is the amount you will have to pay in the event of a claim before the insurance company pays out. Voluntary excess is one such example. Be careful to weigh up the costs of any excesses and whether you can afford them in the event of a claim. There are now certain 'value for money' car insurance policies such as the one offered by Tesco Car Insurance which have very high policy excesses in return for very litlle premium! These are good if you can afford the first 600 of any claim!

7. Improve your credit rating

Most online insurers as soon as they have your name and address will automatically make inquiries to one of the big consumer credit firms such as Experian. Before you have finished filling in the form the car insurance application will know whether you are credit worthy or not. If your credit score appears bad the insurer will probably weight the policy rates against you as they either do not want your business or perceive you to be a greater risk of claiming.

As with all insurance, you can be guaranteed money savings if you take the time and trouble to investigate alternative policies and compare companies cover and quotes on the Internet.

You can find out more about how to purchase, find and compare cheap car insurance quotes online if you visit a specialist car insurance website that compares multiple car insurance schemes and policies and offers you wider cover.
