Saving you money. Why our aim is still the same.

To read all the headlines this week about the recent European Court of Justice decision to end gender-based discrimination by insurance companies you would think that every last woman driver in Britain has already abandoned hope of ever obtaining a cheap car insurance policy.

Yet, to look closer at the ruling is to discover that women will still be receiving cheaper policies than men all the way up until nine days from the end of 2012.



What happens after this date though is purely a matter for conjecture and no one appears to be able to confidently predict the future. Will the insurance market be fairer? Or will women drivers suffer costlier premiums as boy racers are released en masse onto the streets of Britain, terrifying road users and causing accidents?

What’s clear though is that specialist women’s car insurance is unlikely to disappear, even post-2012.

This is because there is nothing wrong with an insurer aiming its services at those customers it believes it can offer better value to.

So, if you’re one of the many who’ve already saved hundreds of pounds on the price of your premium by being insured with CoverGirl, fear not - we’re not going anywhere and will continue trying to supply the cheapest policies available for responsible woman drivers.
