Anyone had any recent luck negotiating a second years auc warranty when buying a used BMW? I asked the dealer but he said it wasn't doable now. Another year costs 1200 so it's not an insignificant amount....

Thx

When I renewed mine on my 328i it was £700 all in, with £0 excess for under 60k. Mine was on 36k/3 yrs at the time in June 2016.

Hoping for the same this year, although I opted for the £505 with a £100 excess.

Depends on the car, and mileage, and zero excess will ramp up the costs further.

What I was surprised to find out the other day (read it on here and then plugged in a few cars to confirm) was that the Insured warranty price is based on the model not the specific car, so a 520d is the same as a fully loaded 535d. Makes the price of the warranty for a high milage 520d very unpalatable.

I bought my 5 series just over 2 years ago and I think the 2nd year AUW was on the invoice as £400. The comprehensive insured warranty with zero excess is £160/month yikes

I bought my E61 M5 through the dealer and I managed to get 2 years warranty as part of the deal.

Negotiated 2 years on an AUC X5 at the end of August last year. I told them it was a deal breaker otherwise. They didn't fight too hard.

Either hope the bearings spin soon and you get the motor rebuilt under warranty, or bite the bullet and get them swapped out for your own piece of mind. Unless you're going to sell up before the warranty runs out!

Purchased a 2011 650i on Saturday. Second year's warranty was £300, which seemed like a bargain! Was told it's the same level as the first year...
