Are extended warranties worth buying?
I'm buying a 2011 Fiat with 58,000 miles on the clock and have been given the option to pay an extra £500 for a two year warranty. Do you think the warranty is worth it or should I pass?

Depends entirely on the wording of the warranty. What does it cover? What are the exclusions? If it's a bumper to bumper warranty with no wear and tear exclusions then it's good value at £500. But I doubt it.
