Extended Warranty

Hi,

My car's 3 years warranty is coming to an end. I've been offered extended warranty for another year for around £200 by the dealership. Is it worthwhile having or is it just a waste of money?

Thanks

    Is it a manufacturers extended warranty or a 3rd party company?

    Manufacturers then take it if you want, 3rd party.. probably not.
