Just coming to the end of first year of owning an M850i, it's £2300 renewal online
Anyone had any joy with negotiating a price on a renewal?

Unfortunately the 8 seems to be an outlier in extended warranty costs. Last time I looked an M3 or M5 was c£1,200. Even an 840i is over £2k.
Strange and annoying as I am likely to have an 8 at some point and would pay for the warranty.
My experience - it's been a good car, but as BMW have made fewer they do seem to have some more niggles compared to the 3, 5 series etc. Good luck with yours when it comes and enjoy!

Have you tried with largest excess(£250) and don't have the recovery option- this will depend on your circumstances on how reliant you are on the car. Had a z4 35i witht the warranty and no recovery(weekend car) had problems with roof(twice) and coolant leak(straight after it replaced as part of oi cooler gasket leak). On both occasions at home at the breakdown came out and sorted it for me due to circumstances including getting the car relyed back to the dealer for the coolant leak foc.
Had cover with autoaiid on another car so wouldn't be completely stuck in my circumstances.
Hi, I just have just renewed with the recovery option and also the £250 excess, the cost plummeted to £1380. Thanks!
