I have been reading Martins stages on getting car insrance quotations from the various stages he outlines. My current car insurance expires on 22nd February 2010. I was going to strt the process of next years car insurance now, but wondered if I am too early to start?

At first thought I say "why not" but i remember reading somewhere that many car insurance companies prefer if you are within six weeks of your renewal date, is this true, or am i worrying over noithing????

    some like Direct Line and Tesco allow you to save the quote for 90 days so worth doing now and saving , you don't have to actually use the saved quote but do a fresh one to check if the price is the same ;)

    You can still use the comparison sites too - they'll save all the information and then refresh the quotes later on if you ask them to.
