Which Casco Extras Are Actually Worth It?
⏱ 2 min read
Most of the price difference between comprehensive quotes comes from optional extras. Buying all of them inflates the premium; buying none leaves gaps. Match them to how you drive.
Heavy city use
In stop-start traffic such as the Maslak–Levent corridor, the most useful are minor damage repair, glass cover without deductible and roadside assistance. Small contacts are frequent; severe damage is rare.
Long-distance driving
Replacement vehicle and assistance matter more, because being stranded costs more away from home. International cover is essential if you drive abroad.
Parking outdoors
Hail and natural events and malicious acts rise in priority. For buildings with enclosed car parks these matter less.
New or high-value vehicles
Key loss, original spare parts guarantees and diminished-value related extras become meaningful.
How to decide
List the claims you have had in the last three years. Whichever benefit would have covered the recurring damage type is your priority. Past data beats guesswork.
Frequently asked questions
How many days of replacement vehicle are provided?
It varies by policy; both the number of days and vehicle class are defined. Ask when quoting.
Should I buy every extra?
No. Extras that do not match your driving pattern raise the premium without being used.
