3rd party Warranty on used MX

[poolmeds]

Hi all,
If you buy a used MX (2017 for example), is there a good third party warranty u can get? I realise it will have 5 year battery and power train left but car warranty? With so much tech I would worry buying a used (possibly private) unless anyone has purchased used, has ideas or recommends?

Thanks

You may be the first. No one that I can recall has reported that they purchased third party.

I don't know about UK but for the U.S, there's:

Vendor - X-Care EV Extended Warranty - The "Why" to our "What".

I haven't heard any complaints from that service just yet.

thanks,

in the UK i dont think you can buy extended warranty from tesla now but for ICE cars its fairly common for people to buy third party warranty, its big business, but im not sure anyone would cover a tesla.
it just seems odd for someone to bu y a £60k+ seconde hand car and just 'hope' it doenst go wrong as not covered
thanks anyhow

I believe that one or two of the specialist EV dealers offer third party warranties, so they must be available. There seem to be a fair few used Teslas that end up in the hands of these specialist EV dealers, so buying from one of them may be a better bet than buying privately. I'm not at all sure I'd buy a used Tesla privately, unless I knew its history very well.
