When selecting an Insurance Company to insure my vehicle, what do I look for?

Apart form the obvious price. I myself look for an Insurance company who will give me choice of repairer. As the process will be less stressful to me when my vehicle needs repairing. Especially if I can have it repaired on one quote only.
