Hmmm. I don't know the answer to most of those questions, however it is for local indie rates. I know I need to have some sort of cover as it's cost an arm and a leg so far. The rest of the email is:
Thank you for your time today.
Based on our conversation earlier, I can confirm that the level of cover I would recommend for your vehicle is ExtraCare

Just ask for what's on my list. Have a look at the WD website to see what No Betterment is, great if you are high ish mileage. Will be a much better level of cover, esp dealer rates. Gives you more options. Also mention here for "club" discount.

They tend to say that if you want dealer rates, then the car must also be serviced by a dealer. I got them to agree and confirm in writing that I could have dealer rates but use a 4x4 indie for the servicing.
As said above. Haggle hard.. Selling my wifes Audi A3 2.0LTR FSI DSG Sport to help pay for her D3
