Hi everyone - quick question on the BMW extended warranty program:
I'm thinking of buying a 6-yr old 6-series with 35k miles that's out of warranty. I'd like to get a BMW warranty on it (understand it has to be inspected by them and pass, and the car will have had to be serviced at BMW throughout).

Is the extended warranty price for the coming year any different for:
(a) a car that's been out of BMW warranty for a couple of years but serviced at BMW (like the one i'm looking at), vs.
(b) a car that's had its BMW warranty continuously extended since expiry (ie. never been outside the BMW warranty)?

This would be helpful to know as it will affect the 'all-in' price for me of this car vs. cars that are under warranty. Am assuming there should be no difference as long as the car passes the BMW inspection but you never know...

Thanks in advance for responses!

Thanks! So there's no diff in price of the warranty between cars that have always been covered vs. cars that have been out of warranty for a while (all other things equal)?

No inspection required as already posted, also doesn't need to be serviced by BMW throughout, just to their standard using OE or equivalent parts and approved fluids by a VAT register outfit.

Second option will be cheaper on the warranty as fisrt will attract a lapsed warranty premium for the 1st year.
