Is a UK Mercedes warranty valid in Ireland?

Does a UK Mercedes manufacturing warranty cover in Ireland if I import the car to Ireland?

Hi Philomena,

It’s a little tricky, that, because Mercedes in the UK offers different levels of warranty cover, from Tier One (the highest) to Tier Three. Mercedes Ireland offers the standard, pan-European two-year warranty, so if the car you’re importing is under two years old, then it should be fine, up to that limit. If it’s older than that, I’d try finding out what UK cover the car has, and then contacting your nearest Mercedes dealership and seeing what part of that warranty they will honour, if any.
