    Great vid: few questions re your warranty:
    1. how much did it cost for the 3 year extended warranty
    2. as it is 3rd party warranty company (i.e. not BMW warranty), do they pay for genuine BMW parts to be installed (if yes, what's the difference between this warranty and BMW warranty)?
    Thank you in advance!

      HI there, glad you liked the video 🙂 I took the warranty out with a private company called Opteven UK. They were fantastic when the rear diff needed to be replaced. It was replaced with a genuine BMW part with a total cost over £4.5k. Not sure about the difference versus a BMW warranty but the coverage was for 3 years with a max single claim of £5k. Hope that helps, Rich

    Just come across your channel as I’m looking at getting an M4 this summer, just a quick question if I may I would have thought something like a coil spring wouldn’t be replaced under a warranty as would be wear and tear (obviously I’m wrong 😂) will be buying from a main dealer for the warranty. Also what’s the service costs like? Keep up the good work all the best with your channel 👍

      Hi there, thanks for taking the time to watch and to comment- much appreciated!
      I was of the same opinion as you but I have always gone by the rule “if you don’t ask, you don’t get” so was pleasantly surprised when they authorised the claim 😊
      I am coming up due for a major service so just trying to decide if I go to a BMW main dealer or the specialist independent….. I’m leaning towards main dealer tbh. The independent quoted me about £700 so expecting closer to a grand at BMW 😳
      Good luck with the search, prices have come down recently so you should be able to pick up a decent one. 👍

    My BMW S1000rr failed on something daft, so gutting when you expect it to pass. Pisses off my OCD when before it had a perfect pass history as well.

      I paid in 1 lump - about £1,100 for 3 years covers.
      I got their top cover and glad I did so 👍

    My dad had a 2015 Ford mondeo and the person testing it broke the bonnet cable 😂😂😂 What are the chances. It failed but managed to get it fixed in the local garage in half an hour.

    I use the A11 to get to and from Stanstead and that is atrocious. Completely agree with the rant about UK roads!!

      Hi there
      I read this last week it’ll cost in the region of £16bn to get the UK roads anywhere near where they should be 🙁
