Tony911 79 Posted July 23, 2019 Hi all, not sold many to over seas buyers and non bothered asking for warranty. Got 1 at the moment who wants to take it to Europe and is asking if warranty will be included. Is it just a case of once it's out of uk not covered buy us or any third party. I know It sounds stupid but don't want to get in bother if anything did ever go wrong Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mojo121 229 Posted July 23, 2019 Wouldn't get into that. If I can't see it's broken I'm not paying. In the past with deals like this I've just discounted on the agreement I'll never see it again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Casper 272 Posted July 23, 2019 Its a good question . Wonder if any warranty providers here would provide European cover Or if there is a way you could take out one with a european provider interesting post Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mark101 536 Posted July 24, 2019 Same as if you were using the car in the UK Sir. Warranty is on an RTB basis and excludes recovery. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

David Horgan 564 Posted July 24, 2019 (edited) Be same in my mind too Return to base at customer expense for warranty claims , Write it on invoice , explain it to them , get them to sign a PDI , and sign to the listed warranty parts covered . Sign against " Customer returns at own expense " The other thing is , if its popular , sell it to someone else cos if their main question is warranty their main thing will be to claim . Our warranty Stops at DOVER , that's what i tell them . Edited July 24, 2019 by David Horgan 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Casper 272 Posted July 24, 2019 I guess as you guys say thats the only way you could do it if I'm ever asked the same question this shall be the answer . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nick M.K. 574 Posted July 24, 2019 Sell it with 1 month 1000 miles limited warranty. Essentially meaning that it will be covered on it's way to Dover if anything major gives way which seems extremely unlikely. This way buyer gets a small amount of peace of mind and you get a lot of peace of mind once that 1000 rolls on the odometer. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rory RSC 596 Posted July 24, 2019 You can offer your usual warranty but its not applicable or useable outside the UK so if he has European breakdown cover, is within his mileage and time constraint you would cover it as per any normal agreement. You certainly won't be picking the car up just outside Istanbul to regas his AC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Had a conversation with him via watsapp and he will be happy as long as it gets to dover with no issue but if it does some how fall to pieces then we have agreed to collect the car and him once he crosses the channel it's his own problem and he seems to be happy with that. Guessing that is fair enough Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
