I was flicking through some of the books in my glove box while waiting and waiting for my daughters. It was a very long wait!!

However, while reading the warranty book I noticed that the 3 year warranty is limited to 60K. That means I will not get to 3 years as I do 25k per year. I think this is a bit cheap by Skoda considering other manufacturers have 5 or 7 year warranty with much higher mileage.

Is the extended warranty worth the money or does anyone have a good word to say about some of the other warranty companies??

I think it works out

2 Years Unlimited warranty

the 3rd Year is restricted to 60k unless you extend it before the 2 years have elapsed or reached 60k

Mine is with Warranty Wise. I can't comment on what they're like if you claim because I haven't, but I did a lot of reading and although you can find stories of people having claims rejected, the positive ones outweigh the negative.

There are different levels of cover but mine is the top one which is all I was offered for my car, as it's less than 4 ear old and 40k miles.

It covers everything except trims. All mechanical and electrical items are covered, including for premature wear. Admittedly their idea of premature and mine may differ, but it's there. They also replace things in pairs where it's good practice, so if a spring breaks, they replace both sides. It's transferable to the next owner, or you can transfer it to your next car.

It includes things like MOT cover, so anything it fails an MOT is covered, roadside, replacement vehicle, and it covers you in Europe.

You can use any VAT registered garage you choose, and they'll pay labour up to £200 per hour (but no more than the repairer's usual rate).

You can choose the limit per claim you want, but there's no limit to the number of claims. You can also opt to have an excess, but there's no compulsory excess.

I went for a £5k claim limit and £250 excess. The warranty cost £930 for 3 years.
