Levels of Cover

Up to 4 years Old and 40,000 Miles

This level of cover is available anywhere in the UK for vehicles up to 4 years old and 40,000 miles.

There are literally thousands of mechanical and electrical parts which go into making a typical car, van or 4×4. In order to claim to be the UK’s Best Used Car Warranty, we have to provide cover for all of them!

You make sure your car is serviced correctly and has no known faults when you take out the cover and we’ll protect you against any unexpected or premature failures of covered parts.

Oil Seals Included:

Engine, gearbox, differential, camshaft, rocker box and turbocharger (or supercharger) including sump to engine oil seal - causing a major oil leak (dripping oil) necessitating immediate replacement (excludes oil staining, worn collars and shafts).

Gaskets Included:

Cylinder head gasket.

Drive Belts Included:

Camshaft timing belt, including tensioner and variable camshaft timing unit (Vanos).
Note: A failure of the camshaft timing belt can cause significant engine damage, and should always be changed (including the tensioner) within the manufacturer’s recommended period.

Wiring Looms Included:

All wiring looms included (excludes corroded or chewed wiring).

Cooling System:

The radiator, heater matrix and oil cooler are included.

Parts Replaced in Pairs:

We include the following Parts, recommended by the manufacturer to be replaced in pairs as good engineering practice, when only one Part has suffered a Breakdown or Failure Due to Wear and Tear: brake discs, brake drums, coil road springs, shock absorbers.
