Ironically, Quentin Wilson is all over the site who previously admitted to clocking used cars!

shocks and suspension being one paticular item, when you see the cost of a set then you have to rethink the outlay..
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

with many, many things still not covered by the warranty..
Porsche have just dropped a £1350 bombshell telling me this is how much it will cost to renew my annual warranty policy on my 2001 C4 Cab. Does anyone have any good experiences with independent suppliers of similar warranty policies?
Les, When this new warranty came out I, and I know a few others looked at the Indy route but it was painfully clear from the outset was that no one will cover the engine and the maximum claim will not exceed £5k. Steve makes a valid point and what he says encapsulates the warranty debate in a nutshell - you gamble or you bite the bullet and pay for the new "bumper to bumper" warranty.

They do a thing called [link=http://www.hartech.org/lifeplan.html]the lifetime maintenance plan[/link] - a monthly scheme that covers pretty much everything (no, really). Not sure you can get it unless you buy the vehicle from them, though. Some other independants are already, or are considering, similar schemes, but mostly the idea is to cover a car they have sold to you, not a car you already own.
Hartech do cover cars purchased elsewhere after an inspection. Their price covers all labour, not parts, but includes clutches / brakes etc. Full details can be found on PistonHeads - see here http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&f=48&t=620413&mid=66877&nmt=Porsche Warranties For me, the biggest reason not to renew my OPC warranty back in Jan was the draconian conditions of the new warranty including not being able to have ANY maintenance done on the car by self or non-OPC dealer AND not being able to have ANY 3rd party add-on, including Tracker / Becker Hi-Fi, non porsche battery etc.
Unfortunately I think the 'bumper to bumper' term was oversold by the dealerships... with many, many things still not covered by the warranty.. shocks and suspension being one paticular item, when you see the cost of a set then you have to rethink the outlay.. garyw
Les, I've just purchased a Warrantywise plan which following some pretty extensive research looked to offer the fairest deal and no nonsense cover. I pay £70 per month for up to £10K in a single claim and a claim limit of £27K, being the value of the car. Which is by the way, a 2003 C2. Hope this helps. Tony

You can have the hartech plan on any car whether you buy from them or not. Mine was from a Hartech customer, not from them directly. The thing I like about Hartech is that it's not just a warranty. Mine's in with them at the moment for the big service which is covered in the ~£80 a month I pay them. It's had new pads which I'll pay for but only the pads, not the labour to fit them. Surely I'm getting most of my £80 per month in that! While it's with them they are trying to track down a couple of problems which are hard to find because they are only apparent when the car's been driven for a while meaning that they can't replicate the problem in the workshop. These are big issues to me because I live with them everyday but I actually feel guilty because of the effort they are putting into sorting it, it's not like having a warranty where you are having to argue to get something fixed. Anybody faced with the increased Porsche warranty should have a look at Hartech's offer.
Hi Tony, Just got a qote on my car selecting a labour charge of £80 an hour at £943 p.a. whiche seems OK. However, they have my car as LPG when I enter the reg number. Ironically, Quentin Wilson is all over the site who previously admitted to clocking used cars! Good choice of front man?
