Car Maintenance Packages
Hi
Anybody have any experience of car maintenance packages?
I have been looking at one and like the idea of spreading the costs I have been told that they don't charge any more than it would cost to maintain myself as they get discounted rates for repairs and tyres, that's how they make their profit.
I still think it would be cheaper to save my money and get servicing, tyres, brakes ect done myself assuming nothing major comes up, but like the idea of fixed monthly costs so I know where I am.
It's this company I have been looking at and speaking to:
http://www.car-maintenance-package.co.uk
By the looks of it they are a leasing company as this is one of their sites also:
http://www.lease-hire.co.uk
Who I have used in the past and was happy with them, just not sure this maintenance package makes financial sense or not.
