M3 Aftermarket Warranty

[Charliecloud]

Who is recommended for a good comprehensive warranty. I went to Warranties Direct online and they don't cover BMW M3.

Any particular companies to avoid, would be useful to know who not to go with.
Thanks

I'm not sure they are worth it. I had one with someone, I Think it was warranty direct, but they didnt want to pay for parking sensors when they went, and I got the distinct impression they play silly beggars if anything else goes too. I feel bitter about the 360quid I pissed against their wall for 6 months.

I think you are better off bunging it in a bank account, and getting anything sorted at an indy if small, and if big you can probably get BMW to help you out a lot with the bill under goodwill if you have fbmwsh.

Not worth the paper they are printed on

If you join the BMWCC, they do a discount on a third-party warranty that will cover your M3 (I believe it's Warranty Direct, though I could be wrong - don't have a CC magazine to hand). But as Vixpy said, it seems all third-party warranty companies are like a greased eel when it comes to paying out for anything.

BMWCC have an arrangement with Warranty Direct and they cover M3s. I have my warranty with them (M Roadster)and had a payout a few months back for an airflow meter. No problem and quick payout. They didnt pay for the diagnostic check to see what the problem was and there is a cap on labour charge but I got the majority of my bill covered so I was happy.
