My ex-demo was the same, had warranty until 3 years after I bought it, not reg date. Ah, the heady days of throwing it at the stealer & saying "fix it please!".

Well I had WD phone me again today 3rd time in two weeks to get me to take a warrenty at a lower price than they quoted me, Thing is I`m not sure what to agree on and what to ask for to be included as the chap is ringing me again tomorrow.
My disco is 6 years old 33k FLSH and a month of warrenty left from the dealer I bought it from.
Thanks guys

curly just have a good read through the post. I started the discussion and ended up with everything I wanted from the offerings of the many forum members on here. Yours is same age as mine approx. I settled for their extra care warranty, with 13 months for 12, free airbag and emissions. £600ish. Couldn't get luxury care as the car was a few years too old for WD apparently.....................................................................................................
If my wife ever sells my stuff for what she thinks I paid for them, you lot are gonna get some bargains!

Curly see below my original post
Warranty direct
Hi all, as promised, having started the thread, i have now taken out a warranty after all your input and comments.
Warranty Direct called me back to negociate and i have set up the following
Extra care warranty ( couldnt get luxury care as mine is an 06 plate and out of LR warranty)
Includes wear and tear
Franchise rates up to £200 per hour
13 for 12, but advised this is a one off as now discontinued, lucky me!
Airbag and emissions free, which includes egr lucky me again!
Checked also that the EPB is also covered
Premium quoted initially £851 for 12 months
Premium agreed (13 months cover) £643, and out came mastercard!
Sad to not get luxury cover, but not available unless you are just leaving LR warranty, or have a concurrent warranty running, but unless you have all the gizmos, fancy stereo and electric everything, thats the only real difference, as mines a lower spec model im cool with the cover
The salesperson did state that you need to service at main dealers if you select franchise rate, but upon questioning did state a " landy specialist " would suffice, but not just a vat registered one....................................................................................................

Don't forget that with WD you must submit a copy of your MOT. & last service. If you don't have, or have skipped a service, they will say to you, even if the claim is authorised. Just so ya know.

Sounds great, but get 13 for 12 and get rid of that 20% malarky

WD just phoned me. Nice clear telephone conversation, and the chap seemed to know what he was talking about. I did not want to spend ages on the phone haggling, so just told him that I wanted a franchise dealer warranty, I knew about 13 for 12, and I wanted all emissions and srs systems included, and I was aware of what deals had been offered to the forum members.
He offered all the above for £600. Paperwork on its way.
Hi Gareth, Interesting that, my D3 is coming up to the end of it's original warranty at the end of this month so a similar situation to your own. Is that for Luxury cover and 'srs'?? systems? Any other tips?
Thanks, Arthur
