Thankfully both were eventually covered by an extended warrenty which we managed to extend for a further 3 years.

this is on a vehicle cost us more than any other vehicle we have brought AND which was nearly new as far as I am concerned AND we have spent the most on keeping it serviced etc according to the "manufactures recommendations".

I would say don't buy a BT50 but I don't think the "Brand" makes much difference.

My old work vehicle had done nearly 300K with services but no major breakdowns, All our other older personal vehicles same

How much was the warrenty?
It was about 1500 bucks for the swift and when read threw it actually covered very little.....and the sneaky barstards put it on top of our finance without asking and was a rigmarol to get out of and refunded.
