1. check the fine print, it will say "any available vehicle"
2. will they cover H&R when they find out?
3. thier "fix" time will start from when it goes into the workshops, NOT when you break down
4. You get a "cover" car, will you seriously plate it if yours is off the road a week? - course not

Ive had all this with Citroen, i got a berlingo when my relay lwb broke down monthly

this is what happens....

your rodius breaks down friday 6pm, ssyanyong are shut, ssayngyong assist (in reality the RAC) come out, cant fix you, tow it into a dealer who cant look at it till monday afternoon earliest and diagnose (lets say) the injector pump has gone, they order 1 overnight/VOR, it arrives tuesday afternoon, the vehicle can go in the workshop wednesday afternoon, you get it back friday afternoon, the RAC will have checked what "loan" cars are available, i doubt there will be a rodius, even if there is you get it tuesday or wednesday, you aint gonna use it for work are you...

Looks good on paper but I'd read and go through the fine print over and over again to make sure everything is in order.

I've just looked through it and to be honest it's looks OK, 250,000 or 5 year warranty is something the Taxi Trade has been after for sometime.

Sounds like SSangyong are looking at cornering the UK's Taxi and PH industry, with the warranty they'll certainly do well.
