Retired civil engineer friend with a TT about to come out of original Audi 3 year warranty, somewhat surprised to hear the manufacturer's charge for a fourth year's cover: £1,200! And Warranty Direct want £700. Clearly, fixing major faults will be costly on such cars, but that sort of price is surely in rip-off territory. Sensibly he's not paying either charge, having looked after the car carefully. Yes, it's all a gamble - but I suggested he put one of the 2 figures into Premium Bonds for a year (with crossed fingers) and enjoy his safe "bet".
