Extending a warranty - worth it?
Is it worth buying an extended warranty @ £445 for 2 years when buying a new Mazda 2 diesel? I plan to keep it for about 5 years. My annual mileage is 20,000.

Up to you. Check the terms. If you need peace of mind go for it. It you take chances, don't.
Our honest used car pricing is a little bit different to all the others. You can get to our values through make or model - you don’t have to follow a prescribed route. Plus, it’s live, which means we can react to changes in the market quicker than any printed price guide.
