3 yr Service and extending Warranty

[PeterUK300]

Hi All
Just booked the car in for it's 3 year service and enquired on extending the warranty for 2 years or 60,000 miles

£539 :shock:

or I can have 1 year for £428

I WILL be taking the 2 years

So Far on Warranty I have had
2 x shocks
1 x Clutch kit
1 x Fly Wheel
1 x 2nd & 3rd Gears
PLUS all the LABOUR for above



Me thinks £539 is well cheap considering above

Pete, thats one reason i sold my scoob.... I saw the price and various other things that made me buy a new one :P

Persoanl opinion though.... Its worth it :wink: Before i sold it, 450 worth of fixes were done to the car....

[PeterUK300]

New one is not an option for me. Only moved house last year and I have a mortgage the size of our national dept :wink:

No pay rise either this year.......... Thanks BT :evil: (internal politics and new job families, no don't go there)

Peter, is the warrenty extension only available to the original purchaser of the car?
mine is second hand and was wondering about it (although dont need to worry for another 20 months?

Also.... Just out of curiosity

Are there companies outside of subaru that will warrent the car?

I found it cheaper and better with other companies. Check out Autotrader they have listing for warranty companies.

Mine with these ppl, was £200 cheaper than subaru

http://www.privatevehiclewarranty.co.uk/ £395

http://www.warrantywise.co.uk/ - £295

For classic MY00 Turbo.

Yes
But what is it like claiming. Do you have to pay out then try and claim back?????
With Subaru you just leave it with them job done

Yes you can, as long as the service record is correct and up to date

Top draw mate

I guess giving them a call would be the correct approach.

I dont know if they are pay then claim - sorry, didnt look that far into it.

But still with a savin of that much PA does it matter, just slap it on plastic.

[PeterUK300]

Just went on the first site and on the web it quoted £639 :shock:

Also with the Subaru one you get Subaru Assist (breakdown cover).

You would need to add the cost of Breakdown recovery to the others

[Sp00ky]

I did on the 2nd one.
