Question

I bought a second hand Honda City gxi of 2005 make. It came with third-party insurance. I will buy a comprehensive insurance this time. The car needs a full paint job. The back bumper is outlined and it may need a replacement. The suspense also needs overhauled. I would like to know whether I can get reimbursed for these jobs if I get the work done after about 6-8 months from getting the insurance

Answer

Hi,

Car Insurance covers all costs related to sudden loss or accident. It does not cover regular wear and tear because of depreciation.

Car Insurance Policies usually do not cover depreciation and other associated costs. Thus, repainting and other basic work is associated with depreciation. If you wish to take depreciation cover, then you need to first finish the penbding work and then avail the cover else the premium would be extremely high.
