How do I compare car insurance?
This page shows how to switch car insurance in a few easy steps. Through alpina.nl you can compare car insurance very easily. All you need to make a calculation is your license plate number, your accumulated claim-free years and your zip code and house number.
Car insurance change?
First of all, it is important to see how you are insured at the moment. The basic coverage of a car insurance is the WA-coverage. This is an obligatory coverage with the lowest premium. It only compensates the damage you cause to third parties in case of an accident. The damage to your own car will not be compensated.
With limited casco coverage, in addition to third-party coverage, the damage to your own car is also compensated in case of fire, storm, theft and broken windows. Damage you cause to your own car, for example due to a collision, is not covered.
Most new cars are insured all-risk. This is the most extensive coverage. Everything that is compensated in the case of limited hull coverage is also compensated in the case of all-risk coverage, including all damage to your own car.
Once you have determined which coverage is the best option for you, you can start comparing car insurance policies at alpina.nl . By just entering your license plate number, the details of the car will be retrieved. No need to look up the new value or weight of the car yourself. After entering your zip code, house number, date of birth and number of accrued claim-free years, you will enter the comparator. Select the desired coverage and immediately see how much you can save.
The final step is to purchase your car insurance. Your new car insurance can take effect on the date your old insurance is terminated.
Alpina can take care of canceling your current insurance.

Changing car insurance: how does it work?
Step 1 - How are you insured now?
Most new cars are All Risk insured. Older cars are insured WA or WA limited casco. The WA-casualty insurance is the most expensive, but also the most extensive. In case of an accident your insurer will pay the damage to the other party and to your own car. The WA car insurance only pays for the damage to the other party. The WA limited casco is a more extensive insurance than the WA insurance. In the WA limited casco there is for example also a payment in case of storm damage, theft and collision with stray animals. To make a good comparison you need to know what coverage you currently have. Also check what you pay per month.
Step 2 - Compare your car insurance policies
Go to Alpina.nl and choose to compare car insurance. By entering your license plate number, the comparator already knows which car it is. You don't have to look up information such as new value and weight. After entering your postal code, house number, date of birth and number of years without claims, you start the comparison. In the follow-up screens, you get a few more questions that you can answer in a moment. No need to dive into the paperwork. Choose your desired coverage and you'll see right away how much you can save compared to your current car insurance.
Step 3 - Shut up and change is done
The next and final step is to take out the car insurance. Now it is just a matter of filling in your personal details and taking out the new insurance. The new car insurance starts at the termination date of the old insurance. We can take care of the cancellation of your current car insurance. With our cancellation service we can make sure that the insurances do not overlap or that you are temporarily uninsured. So the change is done properly.
Save hundreds of euros in three steps
The most expensive third-party car insurance can be hundreds of euros more expensive than the cheapest. This difference is not reflected in the policy conditions. The conditions hardly differ between insurers. Even if you are insured for WA limited hull or WA third party insurance, you will be wasting a lot of money if you do not change. The differences between car insurances are very big.
