talking to a salesman at the white rose shopping center and he offered me a £84 package for all mechanical parts including turbo and 12 months recovery.The exclusions were wear and tear items e.g tyres, pads , bulbs etc.I explained it was a three year old Scooby and he said providing it was less than ten years old/serviced/less than 100k miles it was covered and the repairs could be done by a Subaru Dealership if preffered.now thats got to be a bargain bearing in mind subaru wanted around £400 for the same deal......
anyone tried them?

 

Does sound like a good deal, I would be pouring over the small print, If its as simple as it sounds then its gotta be worth £84!!

 

I thought it was only if you broke down and were recovered by the AA?

 

yea now they offer warranties as well, worked out 16+ a month for my mini

 

You should read the small print, as usually they only allow you to claim for upto £500 at anyone time. Also, your car has to be MOT'd and serviced by an approved AA garage.

 

The offer

• Up to five claims per year
• Repair bills of up to £500 per claim less £25 excess (including VAT)
• Arrange the repair if your vehicle needs to be taken into a garage
• Ensure your repair is as simple, quick and hassle-free as possible

Common causes of breakdown
The cost

• For the year: either £69.50 or £90
• Per month: £6.49 or £8.49

As well as the type of vehicle, the higher price applies based on:

• your vehicle's age (10 years or more)
• or the mileage (over 100,000 miles)

 

This sounds like its well worth looking into!

 

iv just taken this out cost me £160 for the works ,,1 week later called them as the engine light was on , rec me to subaru and it was the air /ox sensor
the aa payed £360 for it fixing

what a result


stu

 

AA here we come.

 

You could have heard me going past !

LOL

dunx

P.S. At that price, I would have stopped !

 

My mate has had this on his various Lotus Elise's that he has owned and he has had loads of claims on it with out any hassle.

He has just had one settled for his snapped toe links and the car was brought home to Scotland from down in Wales.

 

Anyone got a direct link to the offer if its available over the net?

 

I have this on mine. The car can also be flat bedded to a garage of your choice within a 100 miles for work, which is brilliant.

Not had to use it yet but for £13 a month on my car, with relay, home cover and pretty much all AA extras its a brilliant peice of mind.

Differences obviously that a warranty would cover items failing or failed where as this you actually need to break down first but as the AA patrol guy said to me, "its free to call, and if you need it recovering just ask"
