Stoneacre warranty on used cars

I am looking to purchase a car at Stoneacre in Doncaster and they are offering a 4 year warranty for an extra £950 on top of the car cost. They say it includes all major repairs and means no service should ever be above £190 during that period.
Anyone had any experiences of these sort of warranties and whether it is worth the money?
Car we are looking at is 3 years old and has done 40K.

    No service above £190? Are you sure?

    What about a cambelt where its wise to change the waterpump at the same time?

    What about a clutch that is worn not a fault/breakdown?

    What if you need brakes or tyres that are worn and not faulty? Just wear and tear..

    Who is the warranty with? I would only pay for a manufacturers warranty.

    Read the Ts & Cs. Carefully. Then re-read them.


    No warranty will ever cover consumables or wear and tear.
