When you truly love your BMW, you want to protect it in the best way. That’s why we created BMW Protect, our comprehensive range of insurance products designed to help maintain that sheer driving pleasure, whilst protecting you from damage costs. 

Within this suite of BMW Protect products is BMW Contract Hire Shortfall Insurance, ensuring you’re not out of pocket if your BMW is written off due to an accident, theft or fire. BMW Contract Hire Shortfall Insurance is designed to cover the early termination charges at the time of loss on the contract hire/lease hire agreement. BMW Contract Hire Shortfall Insurance covers you against losing out in these tricky situations.

KEY BENEFITS:

• Cover available for 2, 3 or 4 years
  
  
• The insurance could pay up to £500 to cover any excess you have as part of your motor insurance claim
  
  
• Pay for your policy upfront or in 12 monthly payments (at no extra cost)
  
  
• Cover for accessories listed on the original purchase invoice for the insured vehicle that are present at the date of loss
  
  
• You have up to 60 days to purchase your policy after you have collected your BMW. Cover will start after you have purchased the policy

POLICY CONDITIONS:

• If there is any amount still owing on the contract hire agreement after your claim has been settled, it is your responsibility to ensure that settlement of this amount is made.
  
  
• Cover only applicable if a claim under the motor insurance policy is paid.
  
  
• The insurance cover will be capped at a maximum amount. Therefore the amount paid out under the BMW Contract Hire Shortfall Insurance might be lower than the early termination charges at the time of loss on the contract hire/lease hire agreement.
