Suzuki Gap Insurance
Buy 5* Rated Gap Insurance With A 30 Day Money Back Guarantee
Company founder Michio Suzuki first invented a loom for his mother before going on to conquer the car world and that level of ingenuity has followed this Japanese giant through to the present day. With a diverse range of cars and motorcycles, there is something for every taste. Do you love the small Swift or are you a fan of the Vitara compact crossover? Whichever vehicle suits you, you will want to protect your investment with the very best insurance.
Did you know that if your car is stolen or written off, you could lose out financially as well? Most insurers will calculate your settlement figure based on your car’s current market value – not what you paid initially. And that could be a grim fate indeed if you are stuck paying off finance or repaying a lease. Don’t let that be you – take out Guaranteed Asset Protection (GAP) insurance to make sure you’re comprehensively covered.
Let’s say, for example, that you bought a new Vitara for £20,000 and owned it for a few years before it was written off in an accident. Now let’s say that by this point its value has depreciated to £12,000. Your insurers will offer a settlement in line with that figure, leaving you £8,000 down. But with Suzuki gap insurance, you’ll be covered for that difference and won’t be left out of pocket.
Why choose Direct Gap to protect your Suzuki?
What is Suzuki Gap Insurance?
Suzuki gap insurance makes up the difference between the original purchase price and the market value at the time that your vehicle is written off, so your investment is safe and sound. It offers priceless peace of mind every time you get behind the wheel, knowing that even if the worst does happen you’ll be protected from a financial point of view.

How does Suzuki Gap Insurance work?
If you buy a Suzuki for £40,000, it will depreciate over the time that you own it. Let’s say that a few years later, your car is stolen or written off – but by this point, its value has dropped to £25,000.
Your motor insurer will pay out in line with that value, which means you’ve lost out by £15,000. With Suzuki gap insurance, you are covered for that difference between its purchase price and its value when it was declared a total loss.
