Paintwork/Bodywork guarantee

[russ turner]

Anybody got any ideas re the standard warranty on bodywork.

I've seen various figures varying between 3 and 12 years

Be interested to know what the official figure is

Thanks

12 years on cars manufactured after 2004.

..but paintwork is only 3 years. Check your handbook, it's all in there.
