Hello everyone. My warranty for my LCR is about to expire and I have a letter from SEAT UK/Mondial Assistance offering me named component warranty with roadside assitance, relay & homestart. When I got the letter, I thought it was great although no price was listed, so...I enquired and I was sent an information pack and was a little shocked at how much it costs (this is my 1st new-ish car so I haven't had warranty dealings before so the below might be a reasonable price).
"Extensive cover against failure of named mechanical or electrical components
● Parts and labour charges covered
● Warranty repairs conducted by a SEAT Authorised Repairer
● Only SEAT Genuine Parts used for warranty repairs
● SEAT Assistance cover - available 7 days a week, 24 hours a day - across the UK
This valuable cover can be yours from just:
Alhambra and Leon Cupra R - £649"
It lists some pretty expensive bits (turbo, engine internals, aircon etc) but if they aren't likely to go, i'd rather save the £650 and worry about it IF the time comes.
It also lists that no modifications are acceptable but I am not sure if they would be able to detect a remap if any warranty work was needed.
Now, I am just wondering if anyone else has taken out this cover for their LCR and if it has proved worth it/the limited parts listed under the warranty are likely to break on these cars specifically?
Any info, opinions or experience with a warranty like this are all much appreciated.
P.S. The car is a low miler and still has 20k odd on it so I hope it'll be in working order for quite some time.
