New Disco 3 owner - will I get a warranty with 150k?
As it says in the title, having browsed through some of the posts trying to decide whether to warranty or not, have picked up an implication that no warranties are avail for mileages of 150k +.
Can any one confirm or disprove?

Warranty Direct won't even continue an existing warranty beyond 130,000 miles.
Doubtless, someone will offer something, but expect minimal levels of cover.2011 - 2015: 3 x FL2
2015 - 2017: 2 x D4
2017 to date: FFRR SDV8
2023 to date: 2 x FL2 as “second” cars 🙄
2021 to date: Hinckley built ‘14 Triumph Trophy 1200
2022 to date: Hinckley built ‘14 Triumph Trophy 1200 & sidecar!
(One of only two known to exist in the world!)

WD limit is 160k at renewal, but very low cover. They cartainly won't take on a new customer at anywhere near that.

This option
£500 claim limit (minus £35 excess) is the least painful option at 150k miles and only a few quid extra p/m if you already have breakdown cover My D3 Build Thread
