Warranty Direct or not

Just got the renewal through from warranty direct and they have down graded my cover from extracare to securecare meaning they wont now cover the suspension and air con and they still want £633.00
question is is it still worth it, so far i've not had any large bills, touch wood Very Happy

You can guarantee the second you don't have a warranty the repair bills will start rolling in!!

£630 odd seems a lot of money, but as we know doesn't take much to spend that sort of cash on a Disco. Although with the down grade in policy will they try and wheedle their way out of a claim even easier than they usually do. Decisions, decisions.

If you get a quote online, you can guarantee that they'll call you. I've done that the past couple of years, and them told them that I was just looking at the price. If you go on to tell them that you've had a quote, they always either beat your renewal and/or offer upgrades, so you might get the higher level of cover offered.

i used to have a WD warranty for a Renault Grand Espace... found that getting them to pay out was a right pain (I eventually got what car magazine involved, and they finally paid up)... wouldn't touch them with a barge pole now.

I'm currently within a 2 year LR used car warranty, but suspect I will self insure and find a decent indy when that ends.

They only cover me for 1 more year as it will be over the mileage and too old so I think I'll bite the bullet and pay up. Knowing my luck as soon as I stop something major will go wrong

Must admit I always found them very good on my D3.

In 6 years of ownership they replaced the air compressor, alternator and paid for 3 days of investigation chasing a wiring fault.

Was a few years ago now mind - things may of got tighter
