Extended Warranty - Full Cover or Named Component

Post by elrao » Mon Apr 23, 2018 8:58 pm

The car i'm buying is 3 years old next month and has just become eligible for a warranty extension.

Full cover with £250 excess is £680, for named component its about £560. Doesn't seem worth the risk to save £120, but just wondered views on all component v named component?

Mine was £1300 for the year when I bought my car. I checked back a week later and it had gone up to £1750! So I think I’m just going to put £150 a month in a savings account, cross my fingers and hope for the best.....

It changes a lot depending on miles per year (and excess etc). I thought I was getting different prices on my pc and phone until I realised I was hitting the wrong mileage option on my phone
