Thread: Extended Warranty How Much?

I took out a 2 year Allianz warranty yesterday.
Allianz will not disclose prices and confirmed prices are set by dealers.

Brisbane dealership

1 year $2,690 when purchasing a new vehicle or $2,995 after delivery/second hand vehicle
2 years $3,120 when purchasing a new vehicle or $3,495 later

Gold Coast dealership

2 years $3,495 when purchasing a new vehicle.

That's double what I paid 2 years ago for the D3.

Looks like M D3 has had the same experience as I did regarding the before and after rates quoted!

It seems like a bit of a lottery as to who gets charged what.

I guess M D3's experience shows that it will pay to shop around whilst negotiating the original car deal.

They recon it is the dealer repair prices that are pushing up the prices.

i would try ULR Melbourne,PM Sniegy on here

You could look at it this way. (and I know I am stating the obvious).

The cost of the warranty covers the cost of the repairs and the other things ( road side assistance, accomodation etc) averaged over all of the punters plus allows for a profit. You could decide to self insure and take the chance that you will be in the majority who claim less than they have paid.

As Dirty Harry would say. "Do you feel lucky?"

I have not yet made up my mind about this. What deters me is the number of stories about things not covered or claims denied because of wear and tear issues. I am also progressively modifying my car which may reduce the list of covered claims even further.

I paid $2620.00 at ULR in Melbourne, May 2011. Vehicle was a couple of weeks shy of end of warranty. ULR did a complete end of warranty check at the time also (at time of service).
Considering I drive it all day (5 days a week) and is my work vehicle. I need the piece of mind that I know i'm covered should anything happen. Plus you can claim back on tax if vehicle is used as a tax deduction.
