GAP & RTI

HOW COMBINED GAP AND RTI WORKS


Combined GAP and RTI incorporates Return to Invoice cover (or RTI) and 
Finance Guaranteed Asset Protection (or Finance GAP).
RTI is designed to pay out any difference between the settlement 
made by your motor insurance company and the price you 
originally paid for the vehicle. If your vehicle is written off,
Finance GAP pays the difference between the settlement
made by your motor insurance company and the amount
you still owe combined GAP and RTI covers you however
you paid for the vehicle and will pay out the greater of the
Finance GAP or RTI amount, up to the purchase price of the vehicle.
However, there are specific exclusions.

SIGNIFICANT BENEFITS

Policy duration:

The cover is available for varying durations, 
depending on your requirements and according to the terms of your 
finance agreement. Cover ends earlier in the event of a 
paid claim or if the vehicle is no longer in your possession.

Excess:

Provides a contribution of up to £250 towards your insurance policy excess.

Claim:

A range of claim limits are available depending on the 
premium paid and the purchase price of your vehicle.

Vehicle accessories covered:

As long as accessories are fitted by the dealer and are 
manufacturer-approved, we will cover up to £1,500 of extras.

Manufacturer fitted accessories are covered.

Warranty and Road Fund licence:

Includes the cost of a vehicle warranty and makes a contribution 
of up to £100 towards road fund license costs.

Transferable:

If during the first year of cover, the vehicle is written off 
and you get a replacement vehicle on a 
“new for old” basis, 
you can transfer the remaining duration of the policy to your 
replacement vehicle free of charge. 
You may then subsequently, 
at any time, transfer any remaining 
period of insurance on the
policy due to a further change of vehicle, 
on payment of an 
administration fee of £35, as long as the 
replacement vehicle 
falls within the price range specified 
in your policy schedule.

Cancellable:

If, for any reason, you wish to cancel your policy and you do so
within 30 days, and no claim has been registered with 
AutoProtect during this time, we’ll give you a full refund.
After that, you may still cancel at any point,
subject to a £35 administration fee. You may receive a pro-rata 
refund which will reflect the length of the term remaining.

SIGNIFICANT EXCLUSIONS*

which Combined GAP and RTI will unfortunately not cover you.

 issued by an authorised UK motor insurer which

insures against accidental loss and/or damage 
to the vehicle throughout the period of insurance.

In the event your motor insurer rejects your claim and a 
settlement payment is not made you will not be covered by this policy.

We are unable to cover all vehicle types.
