Hi Guys,
Have any of you got experience with 3rd party used car warranties?
I'm thinking of taking one for my 159sw ti (now 91k 57plate)
I had warranty direct for 1yr with my 156 but never needed it (hence didn't continue)
My brother has used warranty direct for years and they have only refused one claim. He had a VW Bora (1.6l 02 auto) and it was a complete lemon.
Claims close to 1k annually, and warranty direct always paid out with only the one refusal. His claims were so high as all work done at VW dealers, dumbest bunch I've ever seen, they just did whatever the computer told them which was always random and bizarre.
I've called local alfa indies I trust and its a mixed bag: most say warranty direct are fine, one says hell no! and recommends an AA warranty. He gave me a couple of examples of WD being bad.
any personal experience or recommendations to share?
