I took one of these covers out when I bought my xe in September last year. Will it be worth renewing it this year as my car has reached 100,000 miles? and I'm not sure if it's covered now as the car has already reached the 100k mile marker Regards from mickxe

It looks like you can cover up to 120000 miles under the Gold plan. See the link and enter your vehicles details. The cover looks OK but labour is restricted to £60/hr + VAT and Infotainment to £500 and keys etc to £100. Looking at JLR prices for some items and labour costs it still needs money adding to any repair if accepted. Eg JLR labour £120/hr means only half that is covered or they have approved garages somewhere. It seems an OK policy but little difference to other suppliers of such insurance. Nice offer but not for me.

O.K. Thanks for that. If you do get a large bill it would still be worth it to get half the payment towards it. I just took mine down to my local Jag agent for a 100,000 mile service. Changed the oil and other serviceable bits and the auxhillrey belt, sounds much better now. It only cost me £730.00 but I'm just hoping my local garage can work on xe's. I know he has worked on xf's, we'll see

Don't like writing negative comments but in this case I feel I have to pass an opinion. DON'T DO IT. First time I've tried to use it and I failed at the first hurdle. RAC need to speak to the garage that repaired my car, they need a complete analysis of the problem, (It''ll only take about 20 minutes over the phone at my garage's expense). They are not on the RAC preferred mechanic's list because of the problems they have had with the RAC in the past so, as expected, I am left with whole bill. I don't mind it was what I expected. So now I'm going to cancel this useless warranty and put aside £20 a week towards future repairs.

Lesson learnt. Don't buy sham policies.

Mmmmm ! Another insurance get out clause.

Yep I agree. Funny thing is to add insult to injury, I had an offer from sky this morning. Now your equipment is three years old buy this insurance for ninety quid against your sky plus box. 3 years and you've got your money back. No thank you

Hi Stu.

What reason did they give for not paying out?

I may be outdated but i used to work for the RAC and when i worked there the warranty had a mileage restriction as mentioned but it also required that the part was not going but had actually gone and you had broken down for the warranty to be applicable, it also required proof of serving by a vat registered garage. Because of all the small print i never recommended it to our customers but this was probably five years ago so it could have changed.
