Warranty

Keeping you on the road

Buying a new car is a great feeling, but unexpected repair bills can be costly and take the ‘edge’ off the excitement of your purchase, so why take the risk? With a warranty you are not only giving yourself peace of mind by being covered for any unforeseen mechanical or electrical failures, but also joining a group of thousands of satisfied customers who have either purchased a vehicle that has a warranty included, or have chosen to add it to the vehicle they have just purchased.

Buying a used car can be a complicated experience, and many people feel vulnerable or unsure of the right questions to ask. This can often lead to customers buying a vehicle, without properly researching, checking and inspecting their intended purchase.

Having a car that has already been checked for quality, safety, and legality takes away these problems before you’ve even looked at it.

Here at CatCarz we have an excellent reputation for supplying quality roadworthy vehicles, so much so that we are authorised to supply a warranty with every car that we sell.

This is unique of for dealers selling Category N registered vehicles. We have been provided with this facility as have been able to clearly demonstrate to our warranty partners the level of quality and professional workmanship we practice, coupled with the preparation that goes into our used cars to ensure our customers complete peace of mind.

Every car supplied by CatCarz comes with a SIX month, £1000 per claim limit GOLD standard warranty and a single use emergency breakdown cover.

This warranty can be used nationwide and covers parts, labour and VAT for repairs of parts that have failed. General wear and tear and serviceable items are not covered. Tyres for example.

So now you can save money buying a car from CatCarz and have peace of mind too!
