Tesco Car Warranty Plan Any Good ?

[Charvelj]

Just been reading up on this and wondered if you guys think it's any good.

Due to the age and mileage of the wife's fabia I am only eligible for the value package. What do you think ?

There appears to be a wide scope of 'get out clauses' in the general exclusion section. Not sure that these policys are worth the paper they are written on, but I might be wrong.

hi charvelj,

i currently have the skoda warranty offerered by skoda group uk, and looking at the policy it is run by the same people that run the tesco one - car care plan. therefore, if skoda themselves are endorsing it then it should be a good policy. i don't know yet, as luckily i have not had to claim on it yet.

also, the skoda warranty id £349.00 for a year (incl rac breakdown which can be bought seperately for £89.00 = warranty alone is £260.00, where as the tesco top line cover is only £199.00.

I'm interested, if anyone has any experience with this, as I'm thinking of shifting the Signum over from Network Q when it runs out.

R.N.S., from reading the details breifly yesterday, i think all those are excluded.
