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.

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

I would try AA breakdown cover, will take the sting out of some bills where you call them out

Find out what any warranty will cost ignore it and save that amount of money each month.

This option Thumbs Up

£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 Thumbs Up
