Re: Vauxhalls to have lifetime warranty
What does it cover? The seatbelts????
Sounds good in theory but I bet the exceptions list will be long

Re: Vauxhalls to have lifetime warranty
Volvo used to do it for a long time.... they removed it because of the cost though.
The links also states its only available for free to the first owner of a new car... but second hand owners can purchase the warranty... and you must take your car annually to a Vauxhall dealer for a free check-up. However I bet theres little or no grace period in there so if you miss the anniversary date, it invalidates said warranty...

Its also only 100,000 miles. Plus you can only do 60,000 in the first 3 years.

That's okay it's a Vauxhall, it'll get nicked and totalled by kids well before you're able to do 60,000 miles

Ive had Vauxhalls for the last 20+ years and no kids have ever stolen them - unlike the only Ford I had.

Re: Vauxhalls to have lifetime warranty
We use Vauxhall Astra's at work and there complete rubbish. They have this stupid 1300 cc diesel that has less pulling power than a spotty little geek on a Friday night.
At least they have decided to go with golfs next.

I agree the 1300cc Diesel is poo in the Astra (down to its weight compared to a Corsa...but still a bit on the pooey side in that).
The golfs are a hoot (even the 1600 TDi is sprightly) so I'm sure you'll enjoy that more...and the standard kit is better
