With car insurance as cheap as just $39 per month, MetroMile is the next most affordable insurance carrier.

What Factors Affect Car Insurance Rates for a Jaguar S-Type?

There are lots of things that car insurance companies take into account to determine how much to charge -- and every company weighs certain factors more than others, so there's not a singular carrier that's the cheapest for everyone.

Here are just a few of the factors car insurers will look at, with individual breakdowns of how each one affects your rates:

Vehicle Age

The Jaguar S-Type has been around for a while -- that means vehicle age will likely play a role in what you end up paying for insurance. Normally, newer cars are going to cost more to insure because they're worth more, however, as time goes on and S-Types continue to depreciate, insurance costs will gradually go lower.

A new Jaguar S-Type model hasn't been added to the market for over 5 years, so there isn't data to analyze this trend. However, as you can see in the table above, the most expensive Jaguar S-Types to insure are those that are 15 years old or more, while the cheapest models are S-Types that are 6 to 7 years old, on average.

Your Age

How old you are plays a significant role in how much you pay for auto insurance. Based on the information above, drivers who have more experience on the road have more affordable rates than young drivers. Jaguar S-Type drivers between 18 and 24 actually pay $39 more than those 25 or older.

Insurance prices continue to decrease as you get older, with drivers aged 65 years and older making up the cheapest age group for the S-Type.

Your Gender

Because women are less likely to get into collisions and get tickets, they are less likely to file a claim with insurance. So, insurance carriers will tend to charge women less than men. Surprisingly, when it comes to S-Type drivers specifically, women pay about $1 more than men each month for car insurance.

Where You Live

It may be obvious that things such as how old you are and what vehicle you drive play a role in your insurance premiums, but did you know that where you live has just as much of an impact? Because auto insurance is regulated at the state level, prices fluctuate quite a bit depending on where you live.

For example, the average Jaguar S-Type owner from New York pays around $82 monthly for liability coverage, while on average, the same driver from California will pay $28 less than that price. The chart above shows average rates for the top 10 most populous states, just to give you a good idea of how much premiums can change across states.

Jaguar S-Type Car Insurance Discounts

No matter your car, your age, or your home state, it's always important to take advantage of as many car insurance discounts as possible.

Even though all insurance companies offer their own unique discounts, there are a few different ones that you'll find with most carriers. These include discounts like:

• Multi-vehicle discounts for having more than one car on your auto policy
• Pay-in-full discounts for agreeing to pay your entire policy rate up front, rather than by monthly payments
• Defensive driving discounts for taking a defensive driving class from an accredited school or institution
• Vehicle safety discounts for having a vehicle with certain safety features (like air bags or anti-lock brakes) or one with higher than average safety ratings

While discounts are always a good way to save money on your car insurance, sometimes the best way to save is just by having a profile that looks good to auto insurance companies.

Of course, you can't control every single aspect of your insurance profile (like some of the attributes we mentioned above), but there is quite a bit of it that you can influence. Below are just a few of the factors you can use to your advantage in order to save money on auto insurance:

Your Driving Record

You've no doubt heard ads from car insurance carriers promoting large discounts for safe drivers. It follows that if you get into an accident or get tickets, insurance prices will increase. But you're probably wondering exactly how much these infractions will cost you.

As you can see from the table above, accidents will usually cost S-Type drivers more than tickets, but both will result in higher than average rates. Jaguar S-Type drivers with one accident on their record pay an average of $92 a month (up $22 from the $70/mo. overall average), while drivers with a single ticket will pay about $76 per month. The rates only get higher the more accidents you have or tickets you get.

How Much You Drive

The total amount of miles you drive annually plays a big role in your auto insurance rates. Those who drive less are less likely to get into collisions, so they'll usually end up spending less on insurance. In the table above, you can see that Jaguar S-Type owners who drive 10,000 miles or more pay $74 for car insurance, while those who drive fewer than 2,500 miles every year pay about $59 a month.

But if you happen to be one of those drivers who put very few miles on your Jaguar S-Type each year, you might consider learning about usage-based or pay-per-mile auto insurance policies. With these policies, you pay a small monthly amount, and your final monthly bill is calculated based on the number of miles you drove.

How Do Jaguar S-Types Compare to Other Vehicles?

If you're considering purchasing a Jaguar S-Type, you might be wondering how it compares to other vehicles. Car insurance is just one cost that comes with a new car purchase, but it's certainly one that's worth thinking about carefully.

Take a look at the table below to see how the Jaguar S-Type stacks up:

With an MSRP that's a quarter more than the going rate for a new vehicle, the Jaguar S-Type is on the more expensive side when it comes to price. The S-Type comes in at $48,335, a bit more expensive than the national average vehicle price of $31,550. A used S-Type will be even less expensive, since there hasn't been a new model added to the market in the last few years.

In the same fashion, insurance premiums run slightly above average when compared to the rest of the vehicle market. Full coverage insurance for a Jaguar S-Type is about $5 a month cheaper than average, while liability only coverage is $13 higher monthly.

When it comes to usage, Jaguar S-Type owners drive fewer miles annually than the national average, with 10,343 miles per year compared to 11,617 for all vehicles.

Jaguar S-Type Insurance FAQs

Is a Jaguar S-Type expensive to insure?

Liability insurance runs an average of $70 per month, while full coverage will cost you around $132. The Jaguar S-Type is less expensive to insure compared to the average vehicle.

How can I get the best price on car insurance for my Jaguar S-Type?

There's only one way to guarantee you're getting the lowest rates -- regularly shopping around and getting quotes. Over time, your driver profile changes, which could change your rates, so it's recommended that you get quotes every 6 months or so. Luckily, sites like Compare.com let you compare premiums from numerous companies at once, meaning you can find the cheapest rates (or guarantee you already have the best deal) in just a few minutes.

Does the color of my Jaguar S-Type affect my insurance prices?

Have you heard that it is more expensive to insure red cars that silver or white vehicles before? Well, that's actually not true. While there are lots of factors car insurance carriers examine when they calculate how much your policy will be, the color of your car is not factored into that decision.

Do I need to have insurance before I buy a Jaguar S-Type?

You'll need to have an auto insurance policy in place before you can legally driver your new (or new to you) vehicle off the dealership lot. As part of the buying process, some dealerships might offer you a car insurance policy, but the easiest thing to do is to let your insurance company know ahead of time.

What car insurance discounts can I get for my Jaguar S-Type?

There are all sorts of discounts out there when it comes to auto insurance. Many of them (like "multi-policy discounts" and "safe driver discounts") are based less on your Jaguar S-Type and more on you, but if your S-Type has safety features like airbags, anti-theft systems, anti-lock brakes, and other features, it may be eligible for certain discounts. The only way to be certain is to get in touch with your insurance carrier and ask about their list of discounts, since they shift quite a bit from company to company.
