Who has the Cheapest Car Insurance for a Land Rover LR2?

Shopping around for a car insurance policy for your Land Rover LR2? You're likely interested in which company offers the most affordable rates. Although there will never be one carrier that offers the lowest rates for everyone, the cheapest average rates for liability only insurance are sometimes as little as $41 per month from MetLife and CaliforniaCasualty.

The third, fourth, and fifth companies on the list are Commonwealth Casualty, Hugo, and MetroMile. That being said, just because these five carriers offer the lowest average rates doesn't necessarily mean they'll be the cheapest for you.

After all, your results might be different, since car insurance companies look at a variety of things when calculating premiums. There's only one way to make sure you find the lowest possible rates, and that's by reviewing quotes from many insurance carriers.

What Factors Affect Car Insurance Rates for a Land Rover LR2?

There are a whole bunch of factors that car insurance companies examine to determine how much to charge you for auto insurance -- and every company weighs certain pieces more than others, so there's not one single carrier that's the most affordable for everyone.

Below are just a few of the variables insurance carriers look at and how each one affects your final rate:

Vehicle Age

Land Rover has been making the LR2 for quite some time -- and that means the car's age may make a difference in how much you'll pay for auto insurance. Generally, older cars will be cheaper to insure because they're worth less than newer models, and as cars age, insurance costs will gradually get lower.

Since a new model has not been added to the market for at least 5 years, we cannot analyze this trend for the LR2. However, as you can see in the table above, the most expensive Land Rover LR2s to insure are those that are 6 to 7 years old, while the cheapest models are LR2s that are 4 to 5 years old, on average.

Your Age

Age plays a big role in how much you pay for car insurance. Based on the information above, those with more experience have lower premiums than younger LR2 drivers. Land Rover LR2 drivers who are 18 to 24 actually pay $22 more than those 25 or older.

Insurance prices continue to go lower as you get older, with drivers aged 45-54 making up the cheapest age group for the LR2.

Your Gender

Because women are less likely to get into accidents and get speeding tickets, they have a lower chance of filing a claim with insurance. Surprisingly, for LR2 drivers, this trend does not hold, and women pay more for their auto insurance than men.

Where You Live

You might already know that factors like how old you are and what vehicle you drive play a role in your insurance prices, but did you know that where you live matters just as much? Because car insurance is regulated on the state level and not nationally, rates can differ quite a bit from state to state.

For example, the average Land Rover LR2 owner from New York pays about $155 a month for liability coverage. Meanwhile, the same driver from California will pay less than 50% of that price, on average. The chart shows average premiums for the top 10 most populous states, just to give you a good idea of how much prices can change across states.

Land Rover LR2 Car Insurance Discounts

Regardless of what state you live in, which car you drive, or how old you are, it's always a good idea to take advantage of as many auto insurance discounts as possible.

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

• Multi-vehicle discounts for having several cars on your auto policy
• Pay-in-full discounts for drivers who choose to pay their entire policy price 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 higher safety ratings or one with certain safety features (like anti-lock brakes or air bags)

While taking advantage of discounts is always a smart way to save money on your insurance, sometimes, the best rates come from simply having a favorable insurance profile, which means having a clean driving record or not having any recent insurance claims.

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

Your Driving Record

You've almost certainly noticed ads from insurance carriers posting large discounts for good drivers. It follows that if you get a speeding ticket or get into an accident, auto insurance premiums will get higher. But you still might be left wondering exactly how much collisions and moving violations will cost you.

As you can see from the table above, accidents will usually cost LR2 drivers more than tickets, but both will result in higher than normal rates. Land Rover LR2 drivers with one ticket will pay an average of $93 per month, while drivers with a single accident on their record pay about $110 per month (up $34 from the $76/mo. overall average). The rates only increase the more collisions you have or tickets you get.

How Much You Drive

Another variable that plays a role in your insurance rates is how much you drive annually. Those who drive less are less likely to get into accidents, so they'll typically be offered less expensive prices. In the above table, you can see that Land Rover LR2 owners who drive between 2,500 and 5,000 miles pay $98 for car insurance, while those who drive more than 10,000 miles each year pay about $61 monthly.

If you don't drive much because have a second vehicle or you work from home, you might consider getting a usage-based or pay-per-mile auto insurance policy. With these kinds of plans, you pay a small base rate each month, with your final monthly bill being calculated based on the number of miles you drove.

Land Rover LR2 Insurance FAQs

Is a Land Rover LR2 expensive to insure?

Liability insurance runs an average of $76 per month, while full coverage will cost you around $140. When compared to the national average of all vehicles, rates come in on the cheaper end of the spectrum.

How can I get the best price on car insurance for my Land Rover LR2?

There's only one way to confirm you're getting the most affordable rates -- regularly shopping around and comparing quotes from a range of carriers. Over time, your driver profile changes, so it's a good rule of thumb to review quotes every 6 months or so. Luckily, sites like Compare.com let you compare premiums from several companies at once, meaning you can find the cheapest rates (or guarantee you already have the best deal) for free.

Does the color of my Land Rover LR2 affect my insurance prices?

You've probably heard the old adage that red cars cost more to insure than cars of other colors, but that's just a myth. There are lots of things auto insurance carriers consider when they decide your insurance premium, but your LR2's color is not factored into that equation.

Do I need to have insurance before I buy a Land Rover LR2?

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

What car insurance discounts can I get for my Land Rover LR2?

There are a ton of discounts out there when it comes to insurance. Many of them (like "safe driver discounts" and "pay-in-full discounts") are based less on your vehicle and more on you, but if your LR2 has safety features like anti-lock brakes, anti-theft systems, airbags, and other features, it may be eligible for certain discounts. You'll only know about which discounts you qualify for if you get in touch with your insurance carrier and ask about their list of discounts, since they shift quite a bit from carrier to carrier.
