Gap Insurance
Hi, Looking to purchase a new car on PCP Finance to get a better deal and pay the car off after 6 weeks. The dealership have offered me free 4 year Gap Insurance. The car is 20K, how much roughly would I have paid for 4 years Gap Insurance if they hadnt included it for free.

Why six weeks.On the day you get the car pay it off, no fees or interest.14 cooling off period or such like.0

It will be 3-6 weeks depending on the delivery time of the new car and when a current investment matures. My question was about cost of the Gap Insurance.0

And if the free GAP is a finance GAP product it will be of little use if you are paying off the finance shortly after buying the vehicle.

Financial/Traditional - pays the shortfall between the insurance settlement and the outstanding finance
Return to Invoice - pays the shortfall between the insurance settlement and what you originally paid for the car
Replacement Vehicle - pays the shortfall between the insurance settlement and what you'd need to pay today for the same original car (ie protects against inflation)
The policies can also be layered so can be RTI and Financial and will payout whichever is the higher of the two.
How much the policy is worth will depend on which type it is and the quality of the cover. Similarly how much value it has to you once the finance is cleared will also depend on the type... financial GAP becomes irrelevant if you have no finance.0
