According to Confused.com, Drivers in Wales can now expect to pay £650 for their car insurance, on average. This means those shopping around and buying a new policy could be saving money compared to this time last year.
Rhydian Jones, motoring expert at Confused.com car insurance, said: “After a long period of seeing their car insurance increase, the news of prices starting to come down will be a relief to drivers. It’s the respite we’ve all been waiting for.
“However, prices are still a lot higher than they have been historically. Many of us will still be paying more than we have in the past, despite gaining more driving experience or building up our no-claims bonus.
“This is why it’s so important to keep shopping around and to make changes to our driving habits if we can. We could also change how we use our cars to see if we could bring our price down even further.”
