- Genuine sudden failures, not just old parts. the test is whether a component suffered a sudden and unforeseen failure — not whether it's old or has covered a lot of miles.
- Turbochargers and superchargers. covered until the vehicle reaches 7 years of age or 80,000 miles, whichever comes first.
- High-voltage batteries on hybrid, PHEV and electric vehicles. covered until 9 years or 70,000 miles, with cell replacement up to £1,500 on EVs and £1,000 on hybrids and PHEVs.
- Engine, gearbox and electrical faults. the same core cover as any ClearPath plan, priced individually for your vehicle's age, mileage and fuel type — there's no fixed price list.
- What's still excluded, whatever the mileage. wear and tear, routine servicing, consumables and pre-existing faults are excluded on every policy, regardless of age.
Every ClearPath quote is calculated individually from the vehicle's age, mileage and fuel type — there's no fixed price list, and no outright refusal for high mileage below the eligibility ceiling of 15 years or 150,000 miles. What decides a claim isn't the odometer, it's whether the failed part suffered a sudden and unforeseen failure or simply reached the end of its expected life — and a complete, invoice-backed service history puts a 130,000-mile car in a far stronger position than a 70,000-mile car with gaps in its records. Two limits are worth knowing before you buy: turbocharger cover ends at 7 years or 80,000 miles, and high-voltage battery cover ends at 9 years or 70,000 miles, with cell replacement capped at £1,500 on EVs and £1,000 on hybrids and PHEVs.
