Supplied Trade Me was rated the best car insurance provider, beating heavyweights like AA and AMI. Kevin McHugh, Finder’s publisher in New Zealand, said that smaller brands can sometimes deliver the best value. “As anyone who has ever purchased car insurance knows, policies aren’t cheap, so it’s important to ensure you’re getting the best bang for your buck. “Kiwis want to know they’re purchasing a quality product from a reputable insurance provider, and our awards seek to recognise that. “Trade Me outperformed some of the bigger insurance names like AMI and State with a near-perfect recommendation score of 94 per cent.
