Having discussed it with Pete Croney a while back, i'm pretty sure the bit of Euro legislation - and I think it's tied up in the Block Exemption etc paper - that frees non official IM companies to work on the cars with full warranty still applying has either not come into force yet or been watered down.
But, if this is crap, Pete will tell me

This ends 30th September 2002, as the EC has now decided that its the consumer that needs protecting.
The descision was announced on BBC's website http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/1775384.stm
The background for the descision came from the Autopolis report http://europa.eu.int/comm/competitio...nd_service.pdf

I should have added, in this case, you were "miss sold" the insurance policy. They are saying that your car was never eligable for cover.
You are entitled to a full refund on the premium and this may go quite some way towards the cost of the repair.
As Puff said, this warranty is an insurance policy, sold on behalf of Mondial. As such it is governed by the Insurance Ombudsman, who you should contact for further advice.
I know of many people who have had claims rejected by Modial and, as ever, its important to read every single bit of small print before relying on such a policy.
