After getting an S320CDI last year and replacing all the obvious bits that needed replacing, the car is now in tip top condition, at least as far as I am aware.
Parts for this car are expensive, and I was wondering whether taking out an extended warranty would be a good idea or not.
A couple of months ago I was looking at two warranties from Warranty Direct.
The first warranty (and the cheapest one) was about £300-£400, but in the event of a claim, the driver had to pay about 50% of parts and labour, IIRC.
The second warranty was a comprehensive policy which supposedly pays everything (parts and labour) but cost about £900 per annum.
What do people here think - buy or avoid a warranty like this?
Any experiences of these warranties & especially trying to claim would be appreciated. Thanks a lot.
