thanks for the replies...im guessing $47 to 48 may be feasible
I was in the same situation as Slugoid - got my Euro very early on back in Sept 03 - there was a shortage of Euro's when they first came out so I guess dealers have the upper hand there. Either you wait for at least 2 months or in my case there was a 5AT Black Euro Lux on the way for $47k onroad so I just had to snag that one!!!!

When I service my car at Courtney and Patterson in Melb, I read somewhere that if you bought the car and service it in Courtney and Patterson, you get extended warranty.Quote:

If you don't take up the offer at the start when you car is about to run out of factory warranty you could extended it and pay the money or bargin with them on price.
My pervious question to Type G was it does not have be a promotion for them to offer you extended warranty, you bargining skills can also get you good deals including free extended warranty.
well at least i understood it...
and its $795 not $300 for the extended warranty.

Everytime we get the extended warranty, and we usually only get this during the 3rd year, we ask for around $100-150 discount :)
We can offer a courtney & Patterson extended warranty but this is NOT the Honda extended warranty with road side assist!Quote:

Its very good and we dont charge for it :D
Thats why our service dept is ranked number 1 in Vic :D
well... there are two types of extended warrenty.. i remembered once that eastern honda was promoting similar thing and when i enquired they said under any circumstances u have to have ur car services at their service deaprtment or other wise the warrenty will be void...
so i guess there's a HONDA extended warrenty and DEALER extended warrenty
You can get extended warranty which covers everything the factory covers for about $1000 from insurance company. But you will need to get it through the dealer. The good thing is that you can decide if you want to pay the extra before the orginal 3 years factory varranty expires.
yeap, and too add, the dealer extended warranty is typically very restrictive, you need to have your car serviced at their workshops, and not others, once any other workshops touch your car, they can void the entire warranty. just imagine, if you were to drive from Melbourne to sydney, and need your car serviced at sydney due to some problems, good luck to your dealer extended warranty..Quote:

What exactly does the Service Dealer's Extended Warranty offer us - possibly things that might be missing from the Honda Extended Warranty one?
