500,000, your third-party insurance price will be almost identical if the engine sizes are the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is because TPL insurance only pays for the <em>other<\/em> person&#8217;s

class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Engine Size &amp; Cylinders:<\/strong> The government sets fixed legal minimum and maximum price limits based entirely on your car type (Sedan vs. SUV) and engine
