Warranty and aftercare

Where a car is young enough to still hold its manufacturer warranty, that is the cover you want and we will tell you exactly how much of it is left. We check the remaining term and any outstanding recalls before the car reaches you, and the answer goes in writing with the rest of the inspection.

Some manufacturers also offer an approved used extension. Where that is available and worth having on the car in question, we will say so.

Beyond that point we arrange third party cover. There is a wide range in quality here and a wide range in price, and the cheap policies are cheap because of what they exclude. We will talk you through what a policy actually covers, what the claim limit is, and where you can have the work done.

We do not insist on it. If you would rather carry the risk yourself on a car with good history, that is a reasonable position and we will not push a policy on you.

We can have a car serviced, MOT'd and protected before it reaches you, so it arrives ready rather than needing a week of appointments. Paint protection film and ceramic coating are worth doing on a car you intend to keep, and are best done before the car has been driven.

Everything here is quoted separately and itemised. It is never rolled into the price of the car.
