Buying or extending a car warranty is a double edged sword, you hope you don't need it but you have it for when you do. Given the cost of cars and the poor availability of decent used cars, extending a warranty on an existing car is more likely an obvious choice, especially on cars coming to the end of their manufactures warranty period.

Warranty Direct were easy to deal with from quote to taking up the policy. They answered my questions regarding where I can take the car in the event of a claim and, more importantly, offered a high level of policy for approx 60% less than the manufactures renewal price.

So far, so good.....time will tell if I have a claim and how thats dealt with.
