What is a used car warranty?
Buy a second hand car and the manufacturer's warranty has probably run out. A used car warranty picks up where that ends. If something mechanical or electrical breaks, the warranty can pay for the repair instead of you.
A car warranty is different from car insurance. Car insurance is designed for accidents and theft. A warranty gives you a plan for unexpected mechanical and electrical failures: the engine, gearbox, electrics, and hundreds of other parts that can go wrong without warning.
Some dealers include a short warranty when you buy from them. These dealer warranties typically last 3 months and only include the basics. An extended car warranty like ours runs for up to 5 years and includes far more: breakdown assistance via the AA, a hire car while yours is being fixed, and hotel costs if you are stranded, where applicable.
What does a warranty include?
Every plan includes these as standard, regardless of your plan level:
- £0 voluntary contribution towards authorised repair costs.
- Unlimited repairs up to your car’s value over the life of your warranty plan.
- AA breakdown assistance, available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
- Car hire benefit, where applicable, while your vehicle is being repaired.
- Hotel and onward travel benefits.
- Repairs in Europe, reimbursed at UK rates, in line with your warranty plan.
- Independent review by an industry expert if you disagree with a repair decision.
Your warranty plan level is based on your vehicle's fuel type, age and mileage. Different plan levels are designed around different vehicle components and repair contribution limits. The price is the same for every plan level.
How It Works
Check your vehicle
Enter your registration and mileage. We check eligibility instantly and tell you which plan level you get.
Choose your term
Pick from 12 to 60 months. The price is the same whichever plan level is available for your vehicle.
Pay securely
Pay by card, or spread the cost with Klarna in three interest-free instalments.
Is a used car warranty worth it?
A major engine or gearbox repair can easily cost thousands of pounds. On a car outside its manufacturer's warranty, you pay the full bill yourself.
A Brumble warranty plan starts at £399 for 12 months, often less than the cost of a single clutch replacement.
Whether it is worth it depends on your car. Older vehicles and those with higher mileage are more likely to need repairs. Premium brands like BMW, Audi, and Mercedes tend to have higher parts costs, so the potential saving is larger.
You do not need to have your car inspected before buying. Enter your registration and we will tell you which plan level is available for your car in under a minute.
