Recommendations needed here chaps.

The famous Kent dealer isn't responding to missives and it seems in any case one can't buy a Network Q warranty so... what would be the next best thing?

Believe RAC and AA offer these... never had one though so couldn't tell you who is best.

As above Nige, considering sticking the AA option onto mine especially for the aircon issues

2005 registered (04 cv8) just quoted £310 for one year or £520 for two years by AA. Anyone have this type of extended warranty? What did you pay? Not sure if this is represents value? Thanks

Hmm,
I would check this. I got a similar quote from another company and when I rang to verify, they said that they only covered cars up to 5litre engines, and as a result could not offer me cover after all.

Warranty Direct £750 per year, not on website - had to phone helpline, but do quote on monaro, Tesco £420 per year - they also quote for monaro but charge an additional premium(They offer 3 policies this is the top one). However reading several web pages re warranty payouts its not at all straightforward. As said before its all in the detail.

Mrs V8 HSV uses Nationwide Autocentres who are linked with the AA, if you get your MOT with them & take out AA waranty you are fully covered, this is way better & cheaper with Silver Seal warranty previously used - hope this is of some help.

750 quid? Think about it, thats money for nothing.

Nige AA do a repair cover too, 90 quid I think a year and it covers you to about 500 quids worth of repairs.

Warranty aren't worth the paper they are written on
