Mercedes A Class Gap Insurance
Buy 5* Rated Gap Insurance With A 30 Day Money Back Guarantee
The A Class is the perfect option if you're looking for that timeless Mercedes style on a budget, packed with plenty of nimble-city drivability and practicality to boot. It's no wonder it's become one of the most popular hatchbacks on the market. Sadly, like most cars, your A Class will still suffer depreciation, losing around 50% of its value in 3 years. Something which could leave you at financial risk.
If yours is written off (or declared a total loss), your insurer will pay the current market value, not the amount you paid, or still owe. That difference could be thousands, which you could be left to pay.
Specialist Mercedes Gap Insurance from Direct Gap will pay the difference between your insurance final settlement figure and the amount outstanding on finance, or the amount needed to replace your car 'like-for-like'.

How does Mercedes Gap Insurance work?
Despite being one of the smaller models in the Mercedes range, the A Class can still exceed £65,000 from new. That means that, based on typical depreciation, you could be facing a £32,500 loss in value, in just a few years. If your Mercedes is written off, you'll only be paid that market value, could you afford to make up the difference?
