Following on my thread here http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a... re: buying an Astra VXR privately or from a dealer...opinion says buy privately.

But I'd like a warranty for peace of mind if something goes pop after a week.

I want a warranty that's worth more than the paper it's written on, but is moderately priced.

Anyone have any recommendations or things I should consider? (I'd also probably have an AA inspection on the car)

Thanks all. I'm glad I asked the question, and easy to see opinion is virtually unanimous...

1. Don't bother with an aftermarket warranty!!
2. I'll stick a few hundred quid in an account for a rainy day instead.
(I did this when I was 20 and have a 'clutch fund' that thankfully I've never had to dip into and had virtually forgotten about, so will top that up)
