New Ct Advance Do I Need Gap?

CMO36 · November 20, 2013

I just bought a 2013 ex demo advance, obviously the dealer had tried to sell me a protection package inc keys, smart, tyres & alloys and G3 glass coat. I am interested in GAP cover, is it worth getting it from Lexus or looking elsewhere?

Do I need anything else?

Thanks in advance

If Lexus are more expensive, I can't imagine it would be by much. You could spend a couple of days looking round, getting quotes and end up dealing with a company who are difficult to get hold of, or you could deal with Lexus, you'd know where to go, who you are dealing with and would get a decent cuppa and a chat.

Try Direct Gap: www.directgap.co.uk

I found them to give clear terms on the insurance and they seemed efficient when I took out the cover. They were very considerably cheaper than the cover offered by my Lexus Dealer. However, obviously, I have not had had to make a claim so I don't know how they are on claims!

Oh also don't forget to find out whether you are covered for the first twelve months under your ordinary motor insurance policy. I discovered that my first year was already covered and Direct Gap were great for delaying the start of their policy by a year and charging me a lower premium accordingly.

Hi,

Just to let you know that we offer a GAP style product called Total Loss Protection. Whilst it's not exactly the same as GAP cover we feel that it's a very cost effective option for what it provides. If you'd like any further details feel free to PM me your contact details and I can arrange for one of our quotes team to give you a call back.

Regards,

Dan.
