Looking back in the thread, two things may assist you;
You may do better, depending on the value of your drive, and you can shop around Nationally, no need to buy locally.
Having said that Inchcape have generally been offering value.
Good luck.MY09 Golf Candy White 2.0 TDI Pacific

Just took my MY10 mk6 GTI for it's 45k service at Burwin. I was absolutely blown away by the professionalism and respect they showed towards me. Ended up purchasing the official VW backed Allianz 3yr/60k warranty for $1580 (RRP is $2490 i believe). I talked to Eric, tell him Luke sent you!

No, it's not the official VW extended warranty. Look closely at the terms and conditions, it will very likely tie you to the dealer for servicing unlike the VW one.

I was at Chatswood Classic Cars last week to test drive the Scirocco R and got to speaking to one of the salesguys about Rahid and Jamil.
As we all know Rashid has left for another dealership but his cousin Jamil (off whom I got great deals for extended warranty) is now working at CCC.He is currently on his Honeymoon and will be back later in the month. So if anyone wants a great deal on VW extended warranties, you could give him a call at CCC at the end of the month.

I recommend anyone who wants to extend their warranty to give them a call (03 9752 2844). I'm not working for them blah blah blah, but the price Eric gave me was pretty good so I thought it's worth letting y'all know.

It worked!
As mentioned in my post (page 50, i think), i bought an extended warranty (the allianz one) from chatswood classic to cover my Golf FSI Pacific. During the holidays after drving it for about 3000 Kms, the exhaust warning lit up. Went to chatswood service centre and was told that the EGR valve was faulty and need repacement. Cost is $759, including labor!Enter extended warranty! very happy, not a single cent out of my pocket.

Just rang one dealer here in ACT (nthside) got quoted 3,590 for the Allianz backed warranty.. not negotiable.
Rang the sthside one... $1945. Can anyone send me contacks for the $1500 one that people have been getting? Although, my lease co. has me on a Swann one (came with lease) which is Swann/manufacturers but should i trust this one or just purchase an official VW one?Mine:2012 MY12.5 Amarok |Natural Grey |RCD510|Premium Bluetooth

Read the fine print on the Swann warranty, carefully. Then decide, particularly based on what types of exclusions they list.
I've had a mate who had his car stolen then burnt out and Swann was his insurer. Swann got a private investigator, put him and his missus through multiple separate interrogations (no other way to describe it), and after a few months finally paid out with him hounding them. It was an awful experience.--------------------------
