Advice needed (again)
So I am coming up to the end of the first year of ownership for my GTS purchased from a main dealer and the Maserati 4th Year CPO warranty is due to expire in just under a month. The car was first registered in Sept 2010 and apparently because there was a break between the original 3 year contractual factory warranty and the 4th Year CPO warranty being applied it means I cannot extend to the 5th year Maserati warranty. Does this sound correct to you?
The dealer is offering its own warranty at circa £1900 for 12 months that gives me up to £4k of cover per claim. It doesn't feel like great value to be honest but they are offering to inspect the car before the CPO warranty runs out so that it can cover anything that might be wrong at the moment before I renew (of which I am not aware of any problems).
What would you do?
Options I am considering so far are.
1-Go with their warranty and inspection of the car
2-Pay another dealer who is much closer to where I live to do the inspection whilst under the CPO warranty, fix anything that is needed / covered and then go for warranty direct cover or similar
3-pay for the close by dealer to inspect the car, fix everything that is needed / covered under the warranty and then go it alone with £1500 in the bank ready to fix any failures in the next 12 months
