Why is car insurance in Leicester so expensive?

Leicester is a fairly big city (it ranks in the top 15 cities in the UK by population size), and car insurance in cities usually costs a bit more than an equivalent policy would cost in a small town or rural area.

The reason that car insurance in cities often costs a little more is that drivers have a higher risk of being involved in an accident when they’re in a heavily built-up area, and many cities also have higher crime rates too.

Still, it’s not all bad news for Leicester motorists – if you lived in an event bigger city like London, Manchester or Birmingham you’d likely pay even more for your car insurance cover.

Could a Leicester car insurance broker help me get a cheaper insurance policy?

Possibly, but if you do decide to check with a local car insurance broker you should still compare quotes from other insurance providers as well.

The reason for that is fairly simple: many brokers will only have relationships with a limited number of insurance providers, which means if you only speak to one broker and don’t compare quotes more broadly you could be missing out on the opportunity to find a better deal.

What other factors will influence the cost of my Leicester car insurance policy?

While your Leicester postcode (and the crime rate in that area) will be an important factor, insurance providers will take a wide range of other risk factors into account when calculating your premium, including your age, your car’s make and model, whether or not you’ve modified the car, where you park your car overnight, how long you’ve held your licence, your driving record and the the size of your no claims bonus.
