As my car comes up to 10 years old and 100k miles I thought I'd look at the BMW warranty and check that we are still going to be covered.
Checking just the website I think that the only governing factor other than having The required service history is that at the time of taking out the warranty (at the very beginning for 'Monthly' or every year for 'Annual') the car should be under 100k miles. This is true for both Named and Comprehensive cover which have a policy limit of the price inc vat you paid for the vehicle on ourchase (your purchase).
Driveline cover however is a lesser cover than the other two and has a limit of £5000 payout. But Driveline does allow you to take out the policy after 100k miles
Comprehensive
Comprehensive cover provides our highest level of Insured Warranty protection and covers the majority of mechanical and electrical components in your vehicle.
Insured Warranty can either be purchased annually or on an ongoing, monthly basis. If you choose the monthly cover option, the price is fixed for a 12 month period. You can also choose whether or not you wish to include an excess with your Insured Warranty policy. This excess is only payable in the event of you making a claim, but including an excess in your policy can reduce the cost of your premium.
For details of those components which are excluded from Comprehensive Insured Warranty click here. For added reassurance, you have the option to include BMW Insured Emergency Service with your Insured Warranty. For more details click here.
Please note that Comprehensive Insured Warranty is not available for vehicles with over 100,000 mileage (at the time of purchasing the warranty).
