Insurance rates now depend on car model
You may want to talk to your
insurance agent before you
shop for a 1983 model car.
What the agent tells you might
save you money on your
insurance and possibly save
your life.
“Some car models have a
better record for resisting
crash damage, so they are less
expensive to insure and in
general they would be safer
than cars that would suffer
greater crash damage,” said
Jay Weinstein of Charlotte, a
spokesman for the North Caro
lina Insurance News Service.
“Effective with the 1983
models, insurance rates for
collision and comprehensive
coverages reflect the past
history of the model with
respect to crash repair costs,”
explained Weinstein, personal
lines manager of the St. Paul
Fire & Marine Insurance
Company. “While there isn’t a
direct link between this data
and occupant deaths and in
juries, on average the cars
with the better record probab
ly would be safer.”
The Vehicle Series Rating
(VSR) system was already in
effect in 40 s itates before it was
approved hour use in North
Carolina beginning with this
year’s models.
“Depending on the model’s
past record, savings or ad
ditional cosies; can be signifi
cant. For e> simple, the buyer
of a Buick Regal four-door
sedan would pay $73 less for
his first year of insurance than
the buyer off a comparably
priced car ivith an average
crash repair cost history,”
Weinstein said.
“In other words, its record
qualifies it for a rate three
steps belovr the comparable
car with an average record.
The system only provides for
rates three steps above or
below the standard rate for
cars in each given price
range,” Weinstein said.
General Motors, which
builds the Buick with the
favorable record, also builds
the Pbntiar Firebird, which
carries a rate three steps
above the ;standard rate for

comparable cars in its price,
range.
‘‘If you buy a 1983 Pbntiac
Firebird coupe, you will pay
$135 more for your first year of
collision and comprehensive
insurance than you would for a
comparable car,” Weinstein
said.
In general, the small foreign
cars carry higher rates than
their American counterparts.
All of the Toyotas except the

steps higher than the standard
rates for their price range. The
Cressida four-door sedan and
the five-door station wagon
carry rates one step lower tnan
the standard.__ _s

Cavaliers, and Citations are
given rates that are either
standard of one or two steps
lower than standard. The Ford
EXPand various models of the
Escort all carry rates that are
standard or one step below
standard. j
“There are 36 pages of
models, so it isn’t possible to
list them all except in a rating
manual, but a talk with your
insurance agent could help you
make your choice,” Weinstein
concluded. -_

FUNERAL HOME
Black Mountain, NC.
Dear Friends,
It is often preferred that clothing worn
during life be worn by the deceased in
burial. However, designers of burial
garments have applied such fine styling,
craftsmanship and attractive fabrics, that
some families select bunal garments -
especially in view of their reasonable cost.
Respectfully,
