In the event of your vehicle being written off in an accident or stolen, our Finance, Lease and Contract Hire Gap Insurance can offer priceless financial protection. It will pay the difference between the outstanding finance balance and the settlement you receive from your motor insurer.

Cover will include up to a maximum of £250 motor insurance excess.

Let’s say that at the point where your car is declared a total loss, you owe £20,000 on your finance agreement. However, due to depreciation and other factors, your car at that stage is only valued at £14,000, which is the settlement you receive from your motor insurance provider.

That leaves you with a hefty £6,000 shortfall on the finance agreement – an amount that you may not be able to come up with. But by taking out Finance Gap Insurance with Direct Gap you’ll have protected yourself, as your policy will ensure that we’ll cover that £6,000 deficit.

Because the value of your car at the time of being declared a total loss will be different to when you first bought it, your motor insurer will offer you a settlement in line with its current worth, rather than the value at the time of purchase.

Recent research shows that the average car depreciates by as much as 60% in its first three years which, if your car were to be written off, could leave you with a significant deficit to pay on a vehicle you can no longer drive.

That’s a situation that nobody would relish, which is why our Finance Gap Insurance is worth considering as a sensible option to mitigate any damaging costs if the worst were to happen to your car.

If misfortune were to strike and your car was declared a total loss, you could be left with a large amount outstanding on your finance agreement. That’s because a motor insurer’s settlement will be in line with the car’s value at the time of the incident, rather than its worth when you originally made the purchase.

If you come to us for your Finance Gap Insurance, we’ll cover that shortfall on your agreement. Without it, you’d have to make up that deficit out of your own pocket, leaving you to pay off a car that is no longer driveable.

Gap Insurance for lease hire is not a legal requirement in the same way that standard motor cover is. But it could prove a shrewd financial decision if your vehicle were to be declared a total loss.

If your car got stolen or was written off and you had not taken out a Gap Insurance policy, the leasing company would expect you to pay off the remainder of the lease. This could run into many thousands of pounds.

Only your insurer can declare the vehicle a total loss which in general can result from accidental damage, your fault or third party fault, fire, theft or vandalism.

Total loss means that you have claimed under your motor insurance, your claim has been agreed, your vehicle has been forfeited (title of the vehicle transferred to the motor insurer) and a payment made following the incident.

If your vehicle is written off and you have taken out Contract Hire, HP or PCP Gap Insurance, the next steps will be as follows:

1. Your motor insurer will confirm your car is a total loss.
2. A settlement figure is requested and subsequently received from the provider of your finance agreement.
3. Direct Gap will then pay the difference between the motor insurer’s settlement and the total finance remaining on the vehicle, ensuring that you have nothing to pay.
4. If you have chosen to purchase deposit protection as an add-on to your main Finance Gap Insurance policy, your deposit will be refunded up to a maximum value of £2,000.

Yes, if your car is written off in an accident that was your fault, your Contract Hire Gap Insurance will still cover you. However, some exclusions apply. For example, if the driver is under the influence of alcohol or non-prescription drugs, the policy will not be valid. The same goes for any illegal activity, fraud or an act of wilful negligence. Please see your policy wording for a full list of the exclusions.

You need to wait until your motor insurer has declared your vehicle a total loss before you can make a claim. Once they have done that, the process is perfectly straightforward:

1. Call our claims line on 01422 756 100.
2. Fill out the claims form.
3. Your paperwork will be checked by a member of our expert in-house claims team.
4. If all is approved, your money will be sent to you via bank transfer.

For more information, head over to our guide on how the claims process works.

If you’ve bought your car via Personal Contract Purchase (PCP), choosing between our policies will depend on your circumstances – there is not necessarily one solution that will suit all.

For example, our Finance/Contract Hire Gap Insurance may be most appropriate if you have put down a minimal deposit. It will cover the difference between the outstanding finance balance and the value of the car at the point where it was declared a total loss.

Our Vehicle Replacement + Gap Insurance will pay the difference between your motor insurer’s settlement and the cost of a replacement car, matching the original specifications of the vehicle.

If you’ve put down a sizeable deposit on your car, our Return to Invoice + Gap Insurance may be the preferred choice. It will cover the difference between your insurer’s payout and the purchase price of your vehicle. Whatever your situation, here at Direct Gap we’re committed to providing the solution that best suits your requirements.

Please see your policy wording for a full listing. However, the main exclusions of Finance Gap Insurance are when the vehicle becomes a total loss as a result of:

• The driver being under the influence of non-prescription drugs or alcohol
• Being involved in illegal activity
• Fraud or an act of wilful negligence e.g., leaving keys in the ignition whilst the vehicle is unattended.

The purchase price is the price of your Vehicle, as confirmed in the sales invoice which includes factory fitted accessories and dealer fitted options up to £1,500, paintwork protection systems up to £250.

The Claim Limit is the "top up" difference between the vehicle value at the point of total loss and the amount required to settle the outstanding finance.

Return to Invoice Gap Insurance offers priceless peace of mind in the event of your vehicle being stolen or written off in an accident. Should your car be declared a total loss, this policy covers the difference between the settlement you receive from your motor insurer and the price you paid to buy your vehicle in the first place.

The value of your car at the time of being written off will be different to when you first bought it. Your motor insurance company will offer you a settlement in line with its current worth, rather than its value when you made the purchase.

If you purchased your vehicle under a finance agreement (except where the policy is transferred) and the outstanding balance at the point of total loss is greater than the original purchase price, RTI Gap Insurance can help you. It will pay the difference between the current market value of the vehicle and the finance balance still due to be paid.

Cover will include up to a maximum of £250 motor insurance excess.

Let’s say that you paid £20,000 for your car. However, at the point where it was declared a total loss, its value had depreciated over time to £12,000. That is the sum that you will receive from your motor insurance company, leaving you £8,000 short of your original investment – a substantial amount by most people’s standards. But by taking out a Back to Invoice Gap Insurance policy with Direct Gap, you’ll have ensured your finances remain protected, as we’ll cover the £8,000 deficit.

Alternatively, let’s say that you bought your car for £10,000 under a finance agreement, and the details of that deal meant you were going to be paying back a total of £12,000 once interest payments have been taken into account. Now let’s say that the value of your vehicle when it was declared a total loss was £7,000. That leaves you with a £5,000 shortfall to make up, which will be covered by your RTI Gap Insurance.

You are not obligated to take out Return to Invoice Gap Insurance – it’s not a legal requirement like standard motor insurance. But as you can see from the examples above, it could prove a sensible financial decision if the worst were to happen to your car.

If your vehicle was stolen or written off and you had no cover in the form of an RTI policy, you could be left significantly out of pocket, or with a large amount left to pay on your finance agreement.

As with any policy, it’s always worth carefully reading through the terms and conditions of your motor insurance documents. If your car is new, some insurers may offer you a replacement vehicle within the first 12 months of ownership. In that situation, you could opt to defer the start of your RTI Gap Insurance policy until your vehicle is one year old.

Return to Invoice Gap Insurance can prove especially worthwhile if you’ve bought a brand new car that may lose value quickly over time. Studies show that cars can depreciate by as much as 60% within the first three years, which could leave you significantly out of pocket if your vehicle were to be declared a total loss.

If that were to happen, your motor insurer’s settlement will be paid in line with the car’s value at that time, rather than in relation to its purchase price. That difference could run into many thousands of pounds, leaving you to pay off a vehicle that you can no longer drive.

Nobody wants to be put in that position, and with our RTI Gap Insurance quotes starting from just £89, we believe it’s a small price to pay for that financial protection and all-important peace of mind.

Yes, Return to Invoice Gap Insuranceis available to those who purchase their cars by way of a finance agreement. If your vehicle is written off and the outstanding balance is greater than the initial purchase price, your policy will cover that difference and release you from the finance contract. This excludes negative equity carried forward from any previous finance agreement and arrears on the contract.

Yes, you can defer the start date for up to a maximum of 12 months but the cover must be taken within 180 days of purchasing the vehicle. The policy start date must not exceed the anniversary of the vehicle’s first registration. It is entirely your responsibility to ensure that you have the appropriate cover provided by your motor insurer during the first 12 months.

Yes, you can make one transfer during the period of insurance. If you sell your vehicle, provided that no claim has been made under the policy, you may transfer the remaining cover to the replacement vehicle, subject to our agreement. No fee will apply for this transfer.

A new schedule will be issued confirming the replacement vehicle details. Where the new vehicle is deemed to be of a higher value, an additional premium may be required. Cover will not include any refinancing.

In the event of bereavement, the remaining benefits of the RTI Gap Insurance may be transferred to the policyholder's spouse or partner.

Yes, Back to Invoice Gap Insurance will still cover you even if the incident that caused your vehicle to be declared a total loss was your fault.

Please carefully read through the terms and conditions of your policy wording for a full listing.

Taking out Return to Invoice Gap Insurance is not an obligation, but it could prove to be a shrewd financial decision in the event of your vehicle being declared a total loss. That’s because the settlement you receive from your motor insurance company will be in line with the car’s value at that time and therefore you would only regain a proportion of the original purchase price.

Our RTI Gap Insurance quotes start from just £89 and it means you’ll be covered for up to the initial value of the vehicle, so it may be worth considering as an additional option to your standard car insurance.

In the event of your vehicle being written off, this total loss gap insurance will pay the difference between the motor insurer’s settlement and the price of a replacement vehicle matching the cost of the car’s original specification.

If you purchased your vehicle under a finance agreement (except where the policy is transferred) and the outstanding finance balance at the point of total loss is greater than the replacement vehicle cost, this insurance will pay the difference between the vehicle value at the time it was written off and the outstanding finance balance.

The value of your vehicle at the time of being declared a total loss will be different to when you first purchased it, and your motor insurance company will offer you a payout aligned to its current worth, rather than its original purchase price.

It is estimated that cars can depreciate by as much as 60% over as little as three years, which may leave you with a significant financial shortfall if your car was to be written off. That is an unpleasant scenario for anyone to imagine, which is why we offer the best in Vehicle Replacement Gap Insurance, to help protect you and your finances.

For example, if you paid £25,000 for your car, but its value at the time of being written off was only £15,000, your Vehicle Replacement Gap Insurance would cover the £10,000 difference between that original purchase price and the settlement you received from your motor insurer. Additionally, if the value of your replacement vehicle had gone up from the original purchase price, your gap insurance policy would deliver a payout to reflect that.

Alternatively, let’s assume you bought your car on a finance deal for £25,000 and, at the time of being written off, you owed £17,000. Your vehicle replacement gap policy would ensure the finance company received their money, while you would keep the remaining £8,000. In cases where the outstanding balance was greater than the cost of a replacement car, this policy would cover the difference between the vehicle’s value when it was written off and the amount left outstanding on the finance agreement.

Furthermore, your cover will include up to a maximum of £250 motor insurance excess.

There is no obligation to take out total loss gap insurance, but it can prove a sensible decision if your car were to ever be written off.

We would always recommend carefully reading through the terms and conditions of your motor insurance policy. If your car is new, your insurer may include the offer of a replacement vehicle within the first year of ownership. If that is the case, you could always choose to defer the start of your Vehicle Replacement Gap Insurance until your car is 12 months old.
