warranty help required
know there are lots of threads on this but could not find the answers...
MIL's D3 is just on it's 3rd birthday, LR want £800 for thei extended warranty and it wont even cover turbo, of which she's had two already,
so now that tesco finest is no more, what was the general consensus on extending warranty? who is the new tesco?
thanks for all help in advance.. i know i should have paid more attention in class

Have a look at Warrant Direct threads, £550 for 13 months, turbo, airbags & emissions, wear & tear from day one if coming straight from a warranty. Seen a few people get payouts from them so fingers crossed. Got 2 policies lined up for when Tesco finishes in April.

warranty Direct. Im with them. I got a pay out. depends on your miles on the car. They only pay a % of parts and only pay 90 pound labour. I had a steering shaft done. cost just over 200 quid and got 123 quid back from WD. I paid £600 for the cover. for me so far it aint being worth it. The car had EGR's and a turbo fitted by the garage I bought it from. the only thing it would help would be major breakdown. Bet that wont happen while covered though.Current: D3 commercial
Past: but not forgotten D3 HSE x2, 5 TD5 disco2's, 1 200tdi disco1, 2 300tdi disco1 one of which was a commercial, Off roader with a rather large spec, ARB's and big travel suspension to name a few.

Got "no betterment", no reduction because of mileage. It's really for a major component going bang. There have been far too many stories of engines letting go to not have cover for major items. I look at it as a form of insurance for the big ticket items, though if it pays smaller stuff that's a bonus.

Car Care Plan are the same peeps that do LR & Tesco (til they finish) so all LER stealers are set up to deal with them. Whether they can be arsed doind so is another matter. Can repairs for Hartwell policies only be done at their dealerships??

It seems any hartwell dealership in country or vat registered dealer and provide proof of warranty and personal validation certificate.You are allowed 1000 miles either side of service milage or four weeks either side at vat registered dealer...their is two warranties A & B Plan vehicles upto 5y 60k and over any age and miles.....
Warranty direct luxurycare, £600 for 13 months, £25 excess. Includes LR dealership labour, audio & satnav, aircon etc. 100% wear & tear cover on on cars <60k miles, this drops progressively with higher miles.The surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that none of it has tried to contact us yet.

LR in manchester told me that they can now do full warranty upto 75k and you can pay as you go monthly £100 per month covers everything turbo included
Just receieved an email - WD are offering 1 months free warranty to you and £40 cash back to me if I get friends and family to take out a warranty with them. PM me if you wish to take out a warranty with them, and I'll send you the info. All cash back can go to the site and/or charity (H4H or Macmillan) The surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that none of it has tried to contact us yet.
