Cover for mechanical and electrical faults
after you buy
Add warranty cover to any car you buy on Autoideal. Three levels of cover. Repairs at VAT-registered garages across the UK, paid straight to the garage.
Choose your level of cover
Silver, Gold and Platinum. The higher the level, the more parts are covered.
LEVEL 1
Silver
For older cars and higher mileage. Covers the main mechanical and electrical parts.
- Engine, gearbox and drive system
- Cooling and fuel systems
- Electrics, steering, suspension and brakes
- Fault diagnosis at an approved garage
LEVEL 2
Gold
Our middle level. Adds the parts that are expensive to repair on modern engines.
- Everything in Silver
- Timing chain and gears
- Turbo and supercharger
- Air conditioning
- Electronic control modules, hybrid drive parts
LEVEL 3
Platinum
Our widest cover, for newer cars with lower mileage.
- Everything in Gold
- Wear and tear on covered parts

- Roadside assistance
Your car's age and mileage decide which levels you can choose. We confirm this, and the price, when you get a quote.
What is not covered
- Service items: oil, filters, brake pads and discs, tyres, wiper blades
- Faults the car already had before the cover started
- Accident damage, misuse and damage from a lack of servicing
- Parts still covered by the manufacturer's warranty
- Parts that are not factory-fitted, and modifications
We show this list up front so there are no surprises at claim time.
