Contract Hire GAP Insurance
Eligibility – contract Hire, Personal Contract Hire, Lease Hire, Finance Lease
Contract Hire/Lease GAP is available for vehicles financed under a contract hire agreement or other lease type arrangement only and is available to companies and private individuals. We can cover cars that are up to 8 years old for a maximum period of 5 years – effectively meaning the car could be 13 years old on its return.
Contract Hire/Lease GAP is available for the period of cover you require, you may have already leased the car for 2 years into a 4 year lease – you only pay for two years of cover.
If the vehicle is written off during the contract hire/lease agreement, you will be personally liable for any financial shortfall remaining if the contract hire company require more than your motor insurer is willing to pay in settlement.
