Warranty Purchase - Falkirk Bairn
Much has been said about Warranties - what they cover / do not cover. My experience was it did not cover what went wrong BUT

Is there warranty cover available where you take the first say £250 of the claim?


i.e. If you have a car you expect bills - a few Hundred pounds is not unsual but where it really hurts is if
on a 3/4/5 year old car the Engine goes bang, the auto box refuses to change up/down, the ABS Pump does not. The ECU decides it has had its day.

If this was possible to get such cover the premiums might be a more manageable amount (£200 / £300 / yr rather than £700+) and have sufficient cover to cover a wider range of faults

Warranty Purchase - markengland
Take a look at www.warrantyworks.co.uk - I have no connection with them but they have been recommended to me by a couple of people. I am looking to change my car in the next month or so and will be purchasing a warranty from them when I do. HTH, Mark.
