• Any - After market warranties 9 Jan 2022 (Forum)
  Hardly an original topic, but I'd appreciate the forum's thoughts on after market warranties.  I've had these warranties with two different companies since 2010, but only claimed once in all that time. I had a second occasion to claim last October when our car failed its MOT and needed work costing just under £300, but the garage owner told me he didn't want to deal with a warranty company because of the hassle it had caused him in the past.

• Dealer Warranty Issues 20 Nov 2014 (Forum)
  Hi guys, i'll put the flame suit on here, we are a small motor trader stocking around 10 cars at one time. We sold a popular diesel saloon 2006 with approx 80k some 10 months ago to a very difficult customer. The turbo housing cracked on the car 2 months in, we replaced this (even after he was abusive to us and we offered a full refund to get rid of him!)
• VW Polo 1.4 - Where do I stand? 30 Jan 2015 (Forum)
  My girlfriend's dad recently bought her a VW Polo 1.4 05 with 45000 on the clock. Seemingly in excellent condition. Approx £3.4K. We have the RAC Gold 3 Month Warranty. I've never bought or owned a car before. We've had the car for one month now and have encountered several problems: - The coil pack went on the motorway and we needed to have this replaced. Warranty covered 50% of repair but still cost us £157. - Noticed a ticking noise so took it to very reputable garage.
