What's the worst that could happen ?

73CSL · 02-09-2014, 10:07 AM

I'm still paying out monthly for the warrenty on my CSL, but obviuosly the less miles I do the worse value a warrenty becomes .

So, with no warrenty, what's the worst that could happen ££ wise ?

I imagine most problems could be tackled for a fraction of the cost of a full BMW warrenty job ?

I heard a few funny noises from my diff on downshifts at the weekend, remembered I had warranty so continued to enjoy my run out and about. For me its piece of mind. Will bring it up at the next service

I don't want to temp fate, but have not extended the warranty since the original one ran out.
