Should we get GAP insurance with our new car?

We are picking up a brand new car, do you recommend GAP insurance? We had it from ALA with the car we are selling.

It is not essential but certainly worth considering. You can read our full guide on GAP insurance here: www.honestjohn.co.uk/cheap-gap-insurance/

Can you recommend a good GAP insurance supplier?
I'm picking up a new BMW shortly and the dealer is keen to sell me GAP insurance, smart insurance (for the bodywork), tyre and alloy insurance, and ceramic paint protection. Each are £500. Are any of these...
When I bought my used cars, the dealer tried to sell me three-year asset protection for £349, ceramic paint protection for £299 and an extended warranty. Surely these are commission scams.
