What is covered?
In addition to the extensive cover afforded by our Secure Plan, the Platinum Plan includes all of the vehicle’s mechanical and electrical components that were the manufacturer’s original fitments excluding those listed in the ‘Components not Covered’ section of this plan.
- Maintenance cover, as part of this plan in the event of the failure of any covered parts, we will pay the replacement costs of those parts and labour. This cover also includes the costs of any repairs following a Manufacturer’s Recommended Service, provided that the terms and conditions of this plan are fully complied with. The number of claims you can make under this plan is unlimited within the plan period, however, the maximum amount claimable per claim will be subject to the claim limit selected and in aggregate the market value of the vehicle at the time of claim. Please refer to your Schedule for details of the claim limit and labour rate applicable to your plan.

- Casings: Consequential damage to casings caused by the failure of a covered component will constitute part of the total claim (within the stated claim limits).
- Aircon Compressor, condenser, evaporator, drier, fan motors.
- Turbo Charger Bearings, shafts, impellers, wastegate and valves.
- Diagnostics Provided printed copies from computerised or handheld devices are supplied.
- Working Materials Should any authorised repair to any of the above components require essential replacement or topping up of lubricants, oils or coolant or replacement of the oil filter these shall be covered as part of the total claim (within the stated claim limits).
Components NOT covered section: Those regarded as service items or components, which are expected to require periodic replacement. These include, but are not limited to: wheels and tyres, spark plugs, glow plugs, wiper blades and arms, auxiliary drive belts, pipes, hoses and cables, SRS airbag systems, seized brake callipers, brake shoes, pads and discs, batteries, lamps and bulbs, fuses, wiring connections and looms, satellite navigation, communication equipment, multimedia systems, remote control transmitters and receivers, bodywork, paintwork, all-weather strip and seals, water ingress, all glass including heater elements, trim, upholstery including seat runners. Timing belts: are covered providing that the last due change of belt has taken place as specified by the manufacturer’s schedules (proof required). Damage subsequently caused if the timing belt has not been changed, as specified by the manufacturer, is specifically excluded.
Please note: Those components covered are covered against breakdown, the replacement of oil filters, lubricants, antifreeze and fluids is included provided the replacement is necessitated by the failure of a covered component and the vehicle is not within 1,000 miles of its next due service. The following are specifically excluded;
- Any breakdown resulting from wear and tear and/or where a part is worn out.
- Any act of breakdown, maintenance or repair is normally covered by a comprehensive motor insurance policy.
- External oil leaks.
- Any failure or breakdown of a part which is under any manufacturer’s or supplier’s warranty.
- Any MOT failure due to exhaust emission.
- The costs of repair to parts are not included in your plan.
