About Mini?

Founded in 1969 in the UK, the distinctive Mini brand has survived numerous changes of ownership. First conceived by British Motor Corporation, it became a make in its own right under British Leyland before being taken over by Rover Group in 1986.

When German car manufacturer BMW bought Mini in 2000, it launched a whole new Mini and has since extended the range to include estate and roadster versions.

How can I get cheaper insurance for my Mini

Driving safely

Convictions and endorsements for speeding or other driving offences will mean paying more for insurance.

Reducing extras

Add-ons like breakdown cover cost extra to add to your policy. Cutting out the extras you don't need can reduce your car insurance price.

Building up a no-claims bonus

The more no claims bonus you have, the cheaper your premium will be.

Parking off-road

You can reduce the cost of motor insurance by parking your vehicle off the road – such as a secure car park or locked garage – when you're not using it.

Adding a named driver

Young or inexperienced drivers can reduce premiums by adding an older driver to their policy.

What type of insurance do I need?

When choosing car insurance, you have three options:

  1. Fully comprehensive: This is the highest level of coverage, providing financial protection if your car, any other car, person, or property is involved in a claim.

  2. Third party, fire and theft: This covers damages to others' cars or property if you're in an accident. It also protects against fire damage and theft, but it won't cover your car's damages in an accident—only fully comprehensive policies offer that level of protection.

  3. Third party only: This offers financial protection solely for damages to others' cars or property in an accident.

Fully comprehensive policies are often the cheapest, as insurers consider these policyholders to be lower risk. However, this can vary depending on the make and model of your vehicle.
