Just seen a Vauxhall ad on Film4:

"We're the first manufacturer in the UK to offer you a warranty that could last a lifetime"

... in the middle of "28 weeks later". Did *anyone* watch it and not think "yeah right, what if you've got about 28 seconds left to live?"

Really, what the fk were they thinking? Just before the great zombies-in-the-helicopter scene... yes

They're certainly getting ambitious with 100,000 miles being a lifetime.

If you're like my parents it could prove to be quite good!
They bought a brand new 07 plate Astra, sold it in March with a total of....
8,000 miles on the clock!

You're looking at a good 46 year warranty on that poor bugger!

This is it, for someone who'd buy a new car and not really put on any mileage it would be excellent. Can see a large number of older people who tend to be buying Kias etc switching to Vauxhall now scratchchin
