So, no more 100K warranty?
Discussion
Does that include cars ordered before the deadline?

warranty is normally from date of registration. So buy one and register by December should still be okay for 100 Whttp://www.motortrader.com/automotive-news/vauxhal...

If Id done a GTS it would have been down to the warranty for sure.
I'm guessing you've gone down the commercial route for your Maloo (so that you can reclaim the VAT), so would only have had 3 years warranty anyway?The Vx reasoning stinks. If it's because the first owners aren't keeping the cars beyond 3 years, then it wouldn't hurt to keep it in place.

Correct.Plus 100% AIA and Van tax etc..
Got some winter tyres for it, waiting for the rest of it now.
Suggestion is that it should make an appearance next weekend!
Probably realised that a few problems will come out after the std 3 years otherwise why stop it?. One reason could be potential costs coming their way or actual costs already incurred on models making it not viable. Would sure put me off buying one new , as I did see it as a benefit ,at least it gave some peace of mind on shelling out that sort of cash for a car. I'd be more concerned now about what they know that I don't, if I had ordered one. Especially if my plan had been to keep it a while.
Expanded for clarity 
If you enjoy unrestricted private use of a van, in the tax year from April 2008 your BIK liability is £3,000 x your marginal tax rate, ie, a 20% tax payer will pay £600 per year whilst a 40% tax payer will pay £1,200 per year.
If your employer provides your fuel for private use an additional BIK liability of £500 applies, which means the tax payable for a 20% tax payer is £100 per year and £200 per year for a 40% tax payer.
Employees who use a commercial vehicle which is only available for business purposes, and remember this includes travel from their home to their normal place of work, have no BIK tax liability whatsoever.

Strangely some on topic info..
No Passenger Cars for Retail Customers registered on or after January 1st 2015 will be eligible for Lifetime Warranty. The only exception will be Passenger Cars ordered on or before October 1st 2014 which, due to long lead times, can only be registered after December 31st 2014.
So anyone who ordered a GTS before October should be fine.

FYI current rates (2014/15) are £3,090 for van benefit and £581 for van fuel benefit
