Waylander Posted November 12, 2017 Report Share Posted November 12, 2017 Never taken ot anything other than usual compo insurance for any cars we've bought in the past but bought wife a new (used) car today and stealer brought up the usual gap insurance, G3 etc etc So - for a ~£15k purchase would you bother with GAP insurance? Seems like a good idea to me at ~£150 for 3 years cover? Do you tend to get anything else - alloy cover etc? Just interested - whole new thinking from my usual!

CarMad Posted November 14, 2017 Report Share Posted November 14, 2017 I've used Ala in the past but never needed to claim. Cheaper than a main dealer but the same product or better cover. Never bothered with the rest or any other cover personally didn't see the point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mac Posted November 17, 2017 Report Share Posted November 17, 2017 Be careful with GAP, and make sure it really is back to invoice (ALA) and not back to invoice*. *subject to our arbitary review of what invoice value should have been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure I’m clear - do you mean ALA behave like this or others do and stick to them? theyve quoted a very competitive price for back to invoice....

Booster Posted November 17, 2017 Report Share Posted November 17, 2017 Waylander, I mentioned to you that something in the back of my mind told me Ala weren't much good when it came to claims. Now I remember it was Mac that had the bad experience. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m hoping it’s confusing click4crap with Ala though.... they're doing a 11% discount at the moment too so I could get both cars for £210! mine for £15k cover for the 2 year pcp and hers for £10k (£14250 invoice ) over 3 years 7 hours ago, Ian_C said: Click4crap http://www.tyresmoke.net/forum/topic/76436-gap-insurance-is-it-worth-it http://www.tyresmoke.net/forum/topic/139650-gap-insurance/ *edit to remove the first half of your quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
