Lee Griffin Founding member of GoCompare: “Cars with smaller engines (under 1000cc) generally fall into lower insurance groups, meaning lower premiums.
“Building up a good driving record and no claims discount in a smaller car means paying less if you do want to move on to bigger, faster cars later.

“Cars with larger engines will fall in to a higher insurance group, as they’re more powerful and therefore seen as riskier on the road.
“It’s also worth noting that even if you purchase a high group rated vehicle for very little money, it’s still deemed a high risk and potentially not as safe on the road due to its age, therefore carrying a higher premium.”
