Hi all

My Punto warranty runs out tomorrow

So am looking to buy extended warranty, can anyone recommend any good company's?

Dont mind how much i pay to a certain extent as long as most things that can go wrong are covered.

Thanks

Chris

Youll get other advice & replies on this subjetc but tread carefully. Some of these extended warranties can look great on paper but not so good in real life. I was quoted £47 / month on my car, I decided to save the money rather than buy "peace of mind" and so far I am quids in, even after having to pay for a new EGR fitted & a pair of front springs over the period since my warranty expired.

I had a quick look through the small print on one, any thing containing electrical connections wernt covered so that's a lotof things on a gp.

Also anything directly connected parts liable to wear is not covered so I would say they will find an excuse out of alo of repairs!

Warranty Direct have been pretty good for me. I got a policy with them and my alternator failed 2 weeks into the cover - paid for with no problems.

Best way to squeeze a good price out of them is get a quote online and wait for them to phone you back. And believe me, they will - constantly until you answer. I negotiated the top package with dealer level repairs and the added extras of MOT failure and something or other else add on. It's £35 a month and I'd have to have the policy for nearly a year in order to be out of pocket now

Most people think that the £35 price is quite a lot, but it's actually very good as the ones who've said that seem to have opted for the lower level of cover...
