Mini GAP Insurance

Q: IS MINI GAP INSURANCE WORTH IT?

GAP insurance for your Mini may be worth the cost if you’re concerned about not getting the original value of your car back if it’s written off by your insurer. You might find GAP insurance is particularly valuable if your Mini is on a finance agreement or you have outstanding payments on a personal loan. This could mean you end up paying finance instalments on a car that’s not even on the road anymore. But the finance company may also insist you pay off the loan entirely. It may be worth considering our Complimentary GAP product which is designed to cover your vehicle for 30 days whilst you research GAP insurance in your own time to find the product that best meets your needs.

What is Mini GAP Insurance?

Mini GAP insurance (Guaranteed Asset Protection) is an optional add-on to your car insurance that helps bridge the gap between what your standard car insurance company pays out in the event of a total loss (your car being stolen or written off) and the amount you still owe on your financing or lease.

Here’s how it works:

Your Mini depreciates in value over time. This means that by the time you pay off your car loan or lease, the car’s market value might be less than what you still owe.
If your Mini is stolen or deemed a total loss, your standard car insurance company will typically only pay out the current market value of the car.
If the market value isn’t enough to cover your remaining loan or lease balance, you’ll be left with a financial gap to pay. This can be a significant burden, especially if you haven’t had time to build up equity in your Mini.
This is where Mini GAP insurance comes in. It will pay the difference between the market value of your car and your loan or finance balance, so you won’t be stuck with any leftover debt.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF GAP INSURANCE?

Return to Invoice Advance GAP Insurance covers the amount originally paid for the vehicle or outstanding balance on your finance agreement including Interest.

In addition to this GAPinsure’s policy also cover £500 towards the excess of your motor vehicle insurance.
