2017 Cupra Warranty.

[heliliam]

Hi guys,

So I managed to get a great deal on a 2017 cupra 300 manual, the car has around 20k on it.

Now is it worth getting an extended warranty on the car ? not sure how reliable the Cupra's are.

Are there any common faults that go wrong even on the newer models that make the warranty worth it ?

Also mine has Seat nav High but the dealers don't know the difference do any of you ?

Thanks
Liam

Most common faults are the thermostat and water pump but mine has been fine and is a 2016. It’s just luck really. I wouldn’t take out an extended warranty unless it’s pretty cheap, as the car will have 1 years approved used warranty anyway if bought from a SEAT dealer.

I looked into it and it's super expensive for decent cover.

Mines a 2016 and I've just had the thermostat and water pump diagnosed as leaking (my 1yr approved used warranty runs out in 2 weeks )

Just out of interest how many miles does your car have on it ? the water pumps do seem a common fault on them it seems.

Its £349 a year for all parts and labor, the claims limit is the price of the car too. ops don't cover ware and tear or wiring.

Just under 20k.

Yeah the specialist I used said they do around 1 a week at the moment on the ea888

I bought a 65 plate and got a 6 month platinum warrantywise included, extended it to 12 months for about £70.

How much use it is if I actually have a problem, who knows.

I’d say for £345 it’s not worth it, chances are you won’t be paying out £345 each year but that’s my opinion
