extended warranty is it worth it - 10/3/2005 12:16:09 PM    01greendisco   Posts: 2 Joined: 10/3/2005 Status: offline I have an 01disco with 37k on it. A 4 year 75k warranty is available for 1700.00 Its bumper to bumper. Has anyone else ever gotten it. Is it worth it? I figure one serious landrover repair and it will have paid for itself. Let me know what you think guys. Thanks Post #: 1

In your situation, I'd want even more miles. On my new '05 Rangie I got a 10yr/100k all inclusive warranty for $3200. Try shopping around, and always make an offer. My warranty was originally offered at $4200, then they took $600 off that, then sold it at the final price. I wonder if I could have done even better. Also note: I've NEVER left the Land Rover service department for under a grand. Warranty that sucker for as long and far as you intend to drive it. Good luck (in reply to 01greendisco) Post #: 2

It's called "PRIMUSCare". It was the typical last minute haggling just before signing the deal. I walked out wondering if I just got fleeced, but upon review, I'm happy about the deal.

I've read the fine print that they sent me along with the wallet cards, and it's definitely a good coverage plan. It'll most likely pay for itself, unfortunately...

It is most important to do so 2-3k before the warrenty ends. hope it helps. gotta love a rover. duboff (in reply to 01greendisco) Post #: 6
