The older the better
Article Abstract:
Car insurance is often cheaper for older people in the United Kingdom. Older drivers are seen as more cautious and likely to drive fewer miles, avoiding rush hours. Age Concern is a charity that has an insurance service, Age Concern Insurance Services (Acis) with 400,000 customers. The retirement Insurance Advisory Service also offers low-cost insurance for the aged. Insurance costs tend to rise after the age of 70-years-old when drivers' skills are seen to be affected by age.

From holiday heaven to hell
Article Abstract:
Most motor insurers in the UK offer breakdown cover for policyholders travelling in Europe. The cover usually includes bilingual roadside help, a tow to a garage if required, transport of spare parts and the use of a hire car if necessary. However, care should be taken to check whether your existing policy covers travel in continental Europe. Motoring organizations usually offer their members discounts on European breakdown cover.
