hello,
Is it worth taking out wheel /tyre cover for my Fiat 500?
I was offered a policy on the car and now I am having second thoughts about the wheel/tyre cover.....
Also offered paint cover too.....
Any thought son whether these are a good idea for the Fiat Lounge - mine is white....think the paint cover could be good idea......

None of these type of policies are worth having. You would be better off putting the money each month into a savings account as an emergency fund.

I've been driving over twenty years and I think I have only had three punctures. Two of those were in tyres that were close to replacement anyway. More than likely you can get one repaired for a tenner anyway.

Again, if you damage a wheel or get a chip/dent the cost should not be too prohibitive to pay for out of an emergency fund.
