	Description:		This week car insurance bosses, appeared in front of MP's as part of an investigation into the cost of premiums. They're continuing to rise and according to price comparison site Compare the Market are up 46% over the last year, making the typical payment for comprehensive insurance £892 a year. Consumer group Which? say some insurers are charging 'eye-watering' APR rates on those spreading the cost over the course of 12 months. So, we put your questions and comments to the Association of British Insurers who tell us it's been a difficult year for the industry. But it's not just insurance, we're also looking at the cost of fuel, maintenance and of course alternatives to running a car altogether. To answer your questions and comments Felicity Hannah is joined by Rachel Burgess the editor of magazine Auto car and Stuart Masson from online publication, The Car Expert.
