Next car - haven't bought it yet! - Extended warranty - what's it like? 28 Jan 2015 (Forum)
Hello I am looking for my next used car on the private market. I have never used an extended warranty before, wondered if it would be worth it, and what other people's experiences were, good and bad.

Does warranty influence the new car choice? 7 Jun 2009 (Forum)
I thought this might justify a new thread. On another thread a poster is choosing between a Fiesta and Hyundai as new car choice. They are probably both good cars, and will no doubt give good service to whoever buys. For us there would have been only one choice here, and that would have been the Hyundai, the unlimited mileage 5 year warranty would have clinched the choice for me. -

Audi A4 B6 - Breakdown costs over £2k AA Warranty not accepting 27 Jul 2011 (Forum)
AA warranty told us to take it to Halfords Autocenter, no one advised not to drive it and to recover it there and Halford Autocenter took it to a test drive to a point it needs a new engine.
