If you are looking to renew your motor insurance this year you might be in for a bit of a shock.

It seems that throughout the industry cost of insurance has been rising steadily in recent months with some companies introducing as much as an 18% increase in the cost of insuring a vehicle.

It seems strange that this has happened across the board, but it will undoubtedly result in increased competition amongst insurers.

Its certainly a time to start and think about shopping around. Forget loyalty its about finding the best deal for you - especially in this economic environment.

The web is a great tool to help you find the best insurance for you and sites such as http://www.theidol.com allow you to compare quotes online.

They work with some of the best known insurers in the UK and are able to provide quotes on motor insurance, life insurance, travel insurance, bike insurance to name a few.
