Total Loss Protection - You Never Know What's Around The Corner...

Total Loss Protection GAP Insurance:

Although your motor insurance gives you invaluable protection, does it give you all the cover you need if your vehicle is stolen or written off? Many motorists have found that their motor insurance lets them down just when they need it most. That’s because your motor insurance may only cover the current market value of your vehicle, the amount you originally paid is likely to be much higher. Total Loss Protection (TLP) is a simple “top up” to your current motor insurance.

About the cover:

TLP is available on all new and used vehicles up to 10 years old and 100,000 miles.
