How Toyota GAP Insurance works

1. Your car is written off or stolen, don’t panic. It’s something you hope will never happen, but the risk is always there.
2. The regular insurer you are with will pay the market value of the car. This is standard practice as the payout is at the time of the claim, not the original price you paid.
3. If a claim is accepted, Toyota GAP Insurance may top this up to the agreed level. This may cover the shortfall, depending on the policy terms.
4. Road ready again! Simple, clear, and no faff. The potential payout may help you replace your Toyota or clear your finance, so you can get back on the road without a financial sting.
