Cover against breakdown due to WEAR & TEAR included as standard
"Wear and tear" is the expected reduction in performance of a part due to the cars age, mileage and/or use. Many companies exclude it, others charge a premium to cover it. All our policies cover breakdown of an insured part attributed to wear and tear. ... more

No increase in premium for high mileage cars
Most warranty providers penalise high mileage car drivers irrespective of whether a claim is made or not by charging more for the warranty. Click4warranty don't, instead we require a contribution toward the cost of repairs in the event of a valid claim. This is known as "The Z Scale" and means instead of paying a premium loading at the outset, there is a contribution for "betterment" in the event of a claim. Not unreasonable as the car is in better condition than it was before

Parts and labour covered
Your Click4Warranty policy pays toward the costs of parts and labour for repair or replacement of an insured component.

Choice of claim limits
All Click4warranty policies have a choice of three substantial claim limits, £3,000; £5,000 and £7,000. This is the maximum amount payable on each and every claim.

Unlimited number of claims.
You can make an unlimited number of claims and we will apply the single claim limit to each claim. The maximum amount we will pay "in total" during the term of the policy is set at the Glass's Guide retail value of your car at the time of claim.

Cover from day one
Sudden, unknown and unexpected failures are covered from the day your policy starts.

No annual mileage restriction
The Click4Warranty policy has no limit on the annual mileage you drive. Your car will continue to be protected by a Click4warranty policy until it has covered 150,000 mile

Claims handled over the 'phone

21 day money back guarantee
Unlike other providers we allow you 21 days (not the standard 14) from the date the policy was purchased to cancel your policy and receive a FULL refund.

Cover may be transferred to new private owner
A warranty is a valuable selling tool if you decide to sell your car. The warranty may be transferred to the new owner, simply call us to request the transfer and we will transfer the balance of your policy to the new owner.

Isnt the general rule to get an inclusive warranty where everything is included unless specifically excluded? I haven't read all this but I can see that it's an exclusive warranty where nothing is included unless specifically included. It does seem to suggest most of the gearbox is covered though, albeit the gearbox ECU could be wriggled out of if it failed.

looks ok, but electronics are generally not covered. but they also don't go wrong.
