They did tell me they used to offer the purchase extended warranty plan by blah blah warranty company, but many of their "valued" customers complained about warranty no paydays, so they offer a comp warranty on certain cars, with condition of customer returning car to base. What impressed me, was when I pointed out common problem of climate control display becoming unreadable, and they agreed to change it whilst servicing car, just like that.. And I know that costs £200 quid straight away.. Many dealers would say car is sold as seen at that price and lie, that it can be fixed for about £50.
