Only reason I went with Motoreasy was (a) WD declined me because of the mileage being in excess of 100k and (b) the dreaded crank issue.
Never had to claim so can’t comment on what they would / wouldn’t do in the event of a claim.
If I hadn’t had a degree of paranoia re. the crank I’d never have bothered and kept the AA breakdown warranty that pays out £500 - small value but very straightforward process and also kept a few quid back each month.Now Golf GTI PP, 7 speed DSG.

On the plus side, we took WD for SWMBOs A1 in the autumn, £660 for three years, paid out no question for window module, £230. Doesn’t take much to get your money back these days with relatively minor faults even on small carsJoined the BMWX5 45e group

Did the OP find a recommendation in the end for an extended warranty. The one we had with the RAC ran out in November and I am looking for a replacement warranty for my 2012 HSE?

No idea how much this costs and only goes to 10 years old / 100,000 miles which seems fair to me
I will probably take this in 3 years time to help get my next one to the point where I'd be binning it anyway
I've never ran anything past 8 years old (or 100,000 miles) bar my first car a VW Beetle, 17 years old when I was given it, 17 years and 3 months old when it was scrapped because it was splitting in two Steve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history)

Just gone with Motoreasy on my 2015 D4 with 109,000 miles, just had a service and extended warranty until march, so they didn't want the free health check.
£915.00 for 18 months (12 months with 6 months added for free), no betterment, just £50 excess, got it in writing that everything is covered including wear and tear,in event of a breakdown the AA can take it straight to the local main dealers.
