Finance Gap Insurance : Contract Hire Gap Insurance : Back To Invoice : Vehicle Replacement Insurance
Over half a million cars are stolen each year, most are written off or vandalised. Add to that the large number of accidents each year and you could be the next person to suffer a vehicle write off!
Most of us think our Comprehensive Motor Insurance covers us if our vehicle is written off... THINK AGAIN!
If your vehicle is written off your motor insurer will only pay the current market value for your vehicle!
So what happens if the current market value is not enough to replace your vehicle or pay off your finance or contract hire agreement?
Simple, there is a financial GAP that you will have to pay out of your own pocket:
Why should I purchase GAP Insurance?
- UK Car Crime is a third of all crime
- A vehicle is stolen every minute, 33% of these are never recovered
- Cars depreciate by up to 77% over a 3 year period
- Motor insurance settlements are always less than the price you pay for your car
- When a write off occurs you lose out and have to raise the funds for any short fall
- Write off's occur all too often, protect yourself
Example:
| Original Cost of your car: | £20,000 |
|---|---|
| Deposit: | £2,000 |
| Amount of loan: | £18,000 |
One year later the car is stolen or is in an accident and declared a total loss.
| Amount still owing to your finance company: | £12,000 |
|---|---|
| The insurance company pays you only: | £7,000 |
| Amount of loan: | £18,000 |
At a minimum this leaves you with a financial GAP of £5,000!
