F12 Berlinetta Warranty - extend or not?

[_Leg_]

I don't have the terms. I can only choose the Power Warranty as my car will be 5 in January (but warranty ran from December for some bizarre Italian reason).

As WD have stopped covering Ferraris I suspect the only choice is Ferrari Power Warranty or no warranty.

I'll end up doing the power warranty and take my chances.

I've never paid for extended warranty, Ferrari or otherwise. The cost is high, the cover limited and to date, any issues I've easily covered myself.

I'm only concerned about the big jobs. An engine going pop, gearbox, etc. A £3000 bill is annoying but no biggie, a £50,000 bill will upset me. Whether my concerns are founded or unfounded on an F12 and 458 Spider that get everything they need when they need it servicing etc wise I really don't know.

I think I'll be doing less miles less aggressively in them now too as the general consensus amongst the group of guys that I do euro trips with is that the days of treating the Alps etc like a playground are gone.

Dunno. I have 2 weeks to mull it over.

I think Warranty Wise will still cover Ferrari’s...

I hear you but the chances of something really big going pop is tiny, especially in modern well maintained cars. Obviously it's up to the individual's appetite for risk but after buying expensive oem extended warranty for several years on a few Fcars without any claims, I decided enough was enough.

Thanks. I appreciate your opinion given your cars.

Funny thing is I run my 2 Porsche’s and 2 Merc’s without warranty and it never even occurred to me to extend theirs. Nor any of my other cars.
