Warranty Direct - Luxury cover lite

Post by pvr » Wed Apr 01, 2015 10:40 pm

Is it worth it? £135 for the year, similar cover as the full one but ….

You have to break down to get it, i.e. red light on for something and then they will cover the issue.

Is that even worth having?

Do you have to break down for yours for it to kick in?

Touch wood, I have never broken down as such in any car, but for example the glob plug control unit failure would make it a pig to start.
