Mr undecided makes a decision shock

Very nice car.

Is the warranty an "official Jag used car" type or an aftermarket 3rd party warranty?

I recently ended up buying my Mercedes from a Bently maindealer garage, who told me that their non franchised warranty was put on all makes of car they sold including cars they sold for £100k.. Turned out that the warranty was actually no where as good as the official main dealer type. So I eventually opted out of the warranty.

Not trying to scare you as you have probably done your homework, just sharing my experience..

Thanks for that - it's a fix anything warranty regardless of cost type thing - I just throw car at them.

Jag lpool and mb lpool are about a mile from each other. On collection it's going straight round to mb for a vehicle check while I wait.

Inspection

Dave
Prior to my recent purchase I had a full inspection done by a wirral company who were outstanding. If you want a number or a copy of my report to look at the depth he goes in to let me know.
Even though I am sooooooooooooo jealous.

It's for the Canadian model, but you might enjoy it anyway!

The guys ( steve and rob) in Hoylake are where it will go for its shake down but I want the standard mb checklist doing as I feel they will respect it more and I can be back in an hour or so. I'm concerned about brake discs but maybe without reason my cls never needed them and neither has the sl . The cl is a very very heavy car heavier than the s class it's based on due to the reinforced roof.

You have helped me a lot - the Jag warranty was poor no stereo cover and certainly quite a few exclusions. It needs a tier 1 warranty or nothing, we are discussing now - this post is very appreciated as I took the sales guys word.

Warranty does not cover many things mainly electrical and that is unacceptable. They are going to talk to the warranty company on Monday and advise, for now it's on hold. I'm not spending £40k and having hassle, I'm led to believe the only way to get a no hassle warranty on an old cl63 is to buy it from mb.

 

[Mobb]

Thats lovely.. Enjoy it.

 

[Schuey]

That's one hell of a car, a chap down the road from me has a white one with the wheels you want.

Enjoy your new beast

 

[DSLiverpool]

Still can't get a tier 1 equivalent warranty, they are not giving up .........

Aplogies for wasting a thread chaps - no fully comprehensive warranty on such a expensive to maintain car = no purchase

Wise decision...

 

[Red C220]

That makes sense and also helps explain some of the monumental depreciation these cars suffer.

Without a water tight warranty you simply can't buy one of these cars.

Jaaaaag XJR instead? At a main dealer.

Talking of warranties, I got some quotes to warranty my CLS for a year (Warranty Direct, Wise etc) .....OVER £!000!!!
What the ....! Wish I'd checked that before I bought it... my 211 was so cheap to run..
