Has anyone heard of GAP Insurance
Hi Guys
I have bought a new car (not a scooby but a lovley little nippy ford!!), whilst collecting the sales man was pushing to sell GAP Insurance. Its an insurance package which guarantees that you get back the full price of the car should anything happening causing the car a total loss in 3 years. You pay £400 and if you ever write the car off in the 3 years you get back the full purchase price. Has anyone ever heard of this? Your thoughts would be very welcome please!! |

Morning
Have a look at the following link, explains it in detail there, so you can make sure you were told the correct info by the sales man! http://www.autotrader.co.uk/CARS/motoring/ins/in-6.jsp Good luck :D |
Hiya
we have it on the Civic and we also had it on the Focus. It's a good idea to take out M x |
GAP (Guaranteed Asset protection)
2 different types back to finance and back to invoice Cover starts from £195 for 3 years so it may be wise to shop around. £400 may be a good quote though :D http://www.click4gap.co.uk/ just one link (there may be others) |
If your car is written off, the insurance policy will pay out the value of the car, and so GAP insurance will pay out the remaining money owed on the finance
example total finance: £9000 car value in event of right off £5000 when insurance pays, it will leave you £4000 owing for finance, GAP will cover this £4000 |
No i have Not sorry :(
Baz ;) Useless point i know ;) |
Thanks guys this is helpful. The bloke did explain it right then - we didn't take the policy with them wasn't sure!! Thanks again!!
Baz - your right - useless! :D:D |
also check the max value of a claim if needed.
ie...£9000 balance on finance £5000 value of car as total loss. is £4000 within the max limit of the claim. oh!! £400, barter with them they cost peanuts, you will get a deal out of them epecially as the end of their 1/4 is due. i reckon you could get that for £300 if you smile nicely:norty: dean:thumb: |
