Do I get a warranty??

[scotty84]

Hey peeps,
Been getting some quotes for a warranty for my 2006 2.2 direct. As it has low milage and fvsh I thought it may be worth it for peace of mind. But then you do hear horror stories about warranty companies lol.
Well for a top warranty as they say a 5 star cover, im getting quotes from £190-£320 for 1 year or £260-£490 for 3 years. Thats from the top rated companies like Warranty direct, Go complete warranty, warranty wise etc.
So do you think its worth getting one? Bonus is they cover everything that seems to fail on the direct engine haha.

Cheers peeps

IF they pay what they say I will be happy as I have just paid for a year's worth with Warranty Direct - Funny thing was they dropped the price by £100 on the phone over the internet quote instantly without me even asking.
As I have the 1.9 CDTI I really hope they do pay out as the DMF is just waiting to happen I am sure...
Any other experiences, good and bad stories would be nice instead of just the horror stories

Yeah im thinking its worth the chance tbh. All this talk about the 2.2 directs timing chain tensioner issue and the fuel pump going at low milage worrys me.
