997.1 C2S 3rd party warranty options
Discussion
I need to scratch my 911 itch, and my ideal in budget car is an 06/07 C2S. I'm put off by tales of engine woes so much that I've been thinking about borrowing more to get me to 997 turbo entry.
However, for my requirement a C2S is a better fit, so apart from Hartech (to far away to be a viable proposition) are there any third party warranties that anyone can recommend that cover engine failure???
Any real world experience greatly appreciated.

I had a feeling someone would come back with this view ;0)
Hartech if you're listening any chance of a Southern branch or partnering with someone that could license your programme??
It would be a ball ache trying to get a broken car if it happened from home to Hartech (coming fro the Isle of Wight!!)

£40k is a whole heap of cash to me, and if I were to put that sort of cash into 1 car I couldn't stomach hefty depreciation - this is where my 997 turbo logic comes from (and the fact I can't stretch to £65k for a 997 GT3).Sounds like there are 1 or 2 options to consider.

Even if it wasn't covered by the AA/Greenflag etc trailering it from IOW up to Bolton shouldn't cost more than £300-£350. I'd rather run that risk than try any other non-OPC warranty solution, which I'd expect would be more painfully financially if you did have a big failure and claimed on it (or tried to).
As mentioned above, the huge scope of work that can be done in-house at Hartech is one of the reasons their plan is so attractive.
I think I can rationalise that bit - my challenge is to find a candidate car and get it ticked to fit the programme (in budget, without having to drive up and down the country a number of times).As mentioned above, the huge scope of work that can be done in-house at Hartech is one of the reasons their plan is so attractive.
I will ring Hartech this week and see what safeguards I could build in to a buying process tha doesn't leave me in the cold.
Is there any solace in an X51 pack, or a car with a Porsche warranty replaced engine (ie did they replace with something less fragile post any date)?
