When I bought my LCR (03 plate 210 LCR, now has 34k miles) I was given 6 months warranty, with the option to extend it for the next two years, I simply have to decide within the 6 months if I want to extend.
I have about 4 months left and I'm unsure of the warranties worth. From memory, it will cost around £300 for 2 years. The warranty is through the Inchape dealer network, but they allow me to get work done at a main dealer and have them invoice Inchape.
However, I'm considering a couple of basic mods - remap, cat back exhaust, panel filter, engine mount, short shifter - all of which may cause problems with the warranty if I extend it, so I'm wondering if it's worth paying out for if there is a risk of any work being refused?
My biggest fear is not buying the warranty and having something serious go wrong. But what 'big' costs could occur with the LCR?
Obviously the turbo could die, but what price are you looking at (fitted) for a new turbo and related work?
And what other nasties could occur and how much would they cost to resolve?
And are any of these things likely, or even common, on cars with 70-80k miles on them?
Any advice would be appreciated
