I've never had to consider this before.

Any recommendations (or who to avoid)?

Go compare has links for quotes from warranty direct and ala.

Quote with Warranty Direct is £135/£148 (for 5k/7k max payout) for 3 years (dealer quoted £350)

Are you sure you need it remember you only get it if your car is written off

Not just crash write offs though

Mate had his house broken into, and the keys taken for his audi a5 convertible. Motorbike moved out of the way, car taken from garage. Gap insurance covered the short fall between insurance valuation and outstanding finance.

Well I say mate, given he drove an Audi he was more of an acquaintance.

says user technicallyinept 🙂

As per the other thread I think its worth buying at the right price (ie often not from the dealer)
