GAP for GTI/GTD

[matchboy]

If I remember rightly, when the mk 6 GTI came out there were a lot of reports of owners having them nicked - from their driveways as well - for the sake of a ton I'd rather be insured to original invoice value.  Also it only takes some plum to smash into the back of you (hopefully not obviously!) and write the car off - at least you have the peace of mind you'll get a brand new replacement.

GAP should be included in the Performance pack as it has bigger breaks then!

My dealer has "given" me back to invoice GAP in addition to the deal negotiated on my last 2 cars, it's certainly not something i'd be paying £400 out for myself. I'm sure he'll get a big wedge of commission for it. I don't mind him giving it to me for free and netting himself a hundred quid in the process. I think you're far more likely to get a payout on write-off than non-recovered theft for most postcodes. If you want GAP and aren't being given it then like all insurance products - shop hard for the best price.

This is the thread  from my exploits of insurance and GAP.

I was lucky as you can see.  But I will have GAP in future to be on the safe side.

Running around in a VW Fox till the new GTi arrives.  Love the Fox (wind up windows and no central locking)
Just how cars used to be.. Oh happy days..

Many, many moons ago I had a Seat Arosa (so a cheapo Fox) - ah, how I miss those days of sweating my nuts off with no air con and wind up windows....

I remember warming the rear windscreen, with my mothers hair dryer, so that I could fit the 'stick on' heated rear window.
Sticking a front spotlight on the rear bumper for a reversing light.
And STP stickers on the side of the car to go faster.

Not to mention a Peco Exhaust
