Hassle Free Cars

Buying a new car can be a stressful experience. First you’ve got to find your ideal motor from an ever-increasing and confusing line-up of different models. After that, there’s some tense haggling to be done with sales staff before you finally hand over your hard-earned cash.

Having got all that out of the way, the last thing you want is trouble and extra expense with your new purchase.

A mechanical breakage or roadside failure is sure to dull the showroom sheen. As a result, all manufacturers offer a warranty and roadside recovery in an effort to give customers a little peace of mind.

However, some marques make much more of an effort than others...

So, in an effort to make your next ownership experience as pain-free as possible, we’ve gathered together some of the best examples of generous warranties and extra-mile aftesales care.

We’ve looked at guarantee cover, servicing packages and roadside recovery to bring you our favourite stress-free cars in a variety of sectors. We’ve also studied our Driver Power surveys to reveal which makers rise to the challenge if there is a problem.

So click the links below to discover the UK's most hassle free car buys.
