Aftercare

So just wondering who went through the process of
Getting prices on aftercare products ?

I asked for a price on extending the warranty for two additional years
Not that I keep my cars longer than about three years but extended warranty always looks good to the next buyer. Almost $5k for two additional years, seems like extortion.

I didn't get the extended warranty option. Although bought the paint protection, tint and an auto-x subscription which is basically fixed towards minor dents, wheel scrapes etc which is a good selling point to the next buyer.

It Is a bit of a rip. Off.
Including the aftercare packages.
Personally, unless you carry animals and children, or are particularly grubby, can't really justify the interior leather care part. Depending on ur driving locales, the ceramic coating won't offer protection from stone chips the way ppf can. I opted only for the window tint to keep cool in summer and protect the interior from UV. The other $$ went towards some Axminster carpets for customised floor mats (too much black in the car already!!) and a new pair of heels .
Bargain hard. There is room to wriggle.

Extra two years warranty insurance was quoted for $2500 by South Yarra BMW here in Melbourne. $5k seems a bit excessive. Anyway, one should be protected by consumer law if any major faults beyond the 3yr warranty period. It's a bit of a grey area but my understanding is that BMW is better than the other German brands at supporting its customers.

I was quoted $2.9k for the 2 years extended. I ended up getting it because I had so many warranty claims with my 428 and the last 2 were out of warranty - managed to get BMW to cover the cost but it was a bit of struggle so just decided to play it safe this time.

Yeah it’s interesting to see such a variance between different deals. $5k was ridiculous
