How it works?

You’ve insured your car, but what if it’s written off or stolen? Your motor insurer pays the current market value, which is often much less than what you originally paid or still owe on finance.

That’s where we step in!

  • You buy your vehicle.
    Your car is worth, say, £22,000 when new. You drive it home, and it begins to depreciate immediately.
  • Something unexpected happens.
    Two years later, your car is written off or stolen. Your motor insurer pays the market value, maybe £15,000.
  • We cover the shortfall.
    GardX Assure pays the £7,000 difference so you’re not out of pocket, you can get back on the road without a financial loss.

What exactly is GAP insurance? 

GAP stands for Guaranteed Asset Protection. It covers the difference between what your motor insurer will pay if your vehicle is written off or stolen, and what you originally paid for the vehicle or what you still owe on finance.

Do I need GAP insurance if I already have comprehensive cover? 

GAP insurance compliments your motor insurance. Your comprehensive policy would only pay the current market value of your car, not what you originally paid or owe on finance. GAP insurance fills that gap so you’re not left out of pocket.

Why should I consider longer-term GAP insurance?

Here are the features and benefits of our GAP insurance:

  • If an incident occurs resulting in your vehicle being written off due to accident, fire or theft, GAP insurance covers the difference between your comprehensive motor insurer’s settlement amount at the time of loss, and the greater of the original invoice price or, the amount outstanding under your finance agreement (if any).
  • Up to £750 Motor Insurance Excess cover for total loss claims
  • Up to £750 Additional Excess cover unlimited number in terms of cover for non-total loss claims
  • Up to £1,500 cash settlement to help you with the inconvenience and unexpected costs following a total loss
  • £500 contribution towards your next new car when you purchase from your supplying dealer
  • £30 per day Temporary Vehicle Replacement cover up to 30 days
  • Unlimited Factory Fitted options
  • Dealer Fitted Accessories up to £1,500 included
  • Transferrable to a replacement vehicle
  • Daily pro-rata cancellation after 30 days, no cancellation fee
