Did I do ok?

[DWill]

My 2010 MSport has just about reached the end of its warranty, so I went in search of maintenance extension and BMW warranty.

After som negotiating I was able to pick up both the maintenance extension Premium warranty for about 5k.

The maintenance is the same as the new car maintenance program. Its good for 6 years or 100k mikes. Given that my car seems to go through brakes at 30k- 32k I should get at least 2 sets of brakes out of it, plus a few oil changes and a brake fluid change. At 2 sets of brakes I'm money ahead.

The warranty is a BMW warranty good for 6 years or 100k miles. There's a 50.00 deductible per visit, not per item. It basically covers everything but "trim"; for instance something like the sun roof itself isn't covered, but the motor/switches that make it work are. All electronics and computers are covered as well, including all the items that make up the nag system other than maps of course.

I had planned to trade the car for a new X5 but decided last minute to keep it for a while. That left me with little time to price BMW maint/warranties.

Both the warranty and the maintenance are transferable with he car nd should the car ever be totaled I get the money back, pro-rated of course.

So I wondering, how do you guys think I did?
