Warranty - would you?
Discussion
I've just bought a beautiful 2004 986 Anniversary, and I pick it up next week.
The dealer would also like to sell me a warranty, and mindful of the cost of replacement engines I am considering it. Would you pay £700 for a 2 year warranty on a 986? It's just had a new clutch and no issues with the IMS or RMS were found. It's done 68000 miles and has full service history.

Thanks for the helpful replies, and the 'banter' :-)
The warranty is through AutoProtect, and now having researched them, quite frankly, their reputation precedes them.

That and the examples of repair costs you've suggested have helped me decide to decline the warrantly.
If the engine does ever go pop I'll just buy another and have an LM Engineering bearing fitted. And if it doesn't then I have nothing to worry about!
Who are the best specialists in the London area (east, where I am now, and west/Surrey, where I intend to move)? I don't see much point in keeping this car in the OPC network.
