Hi All,
I just purchased my first Jaguar! I think I got a great deal but on an older model. I purchased a 2005 XJR supercharged with 45,000 miles for less than 25K. It is a beautiful car. I am now trying to purchase a warranty for the vehicle. I bought it from a local luxuary dealership; therefore, they were unable to offer me a warranty. I've been searching... Most companies want 3-4K. The nearest Jag dealership wants 6700 for a 3 year 36K miles. Can anyone advise with the names of reputable companies that I should check out? Thanks!!
2004 Cadillac Escalade
2003 Ford F-150

Sounds like a load your dealership told you. Any dealer can sell extended warranties. Just as you could buy one, mark it up and sell it to someone else.
I used (I think it's called) AA Auto Warranty and it worked out well for me. The only repair I had under the warranty; torque converter, was repaired without jumping through hoops.
I paid about $2500.00 USD for a 3 year warranty.

You could also check with your preferred shop to see who they have worked with in the past - the service advisors usually have a good grasp on which companies are the least favorable or like to do all they can to wedge out of a warranty claim.
I'd also make absolutely sure you are getting exactly what you want out of the warranty you choose - I got screwed on my last one. I had understood that I was signing up for Drivetrain, suspension and electrical - what I got was only drivetrain. Went back to read the actual paperwork that I signed and that was all that was there. Moral of the story make sure that you pay attention to the details of the paperwork for any exclusions et al.
