kind of like insurance in my opinion, they try and get as much money out of you as possible, and make it as difficult as possible to get it back off them in the event of making a claim (not that i have ever had too). my philosophy is get the most basic level of comprehensive cover they offer (or dont in the case of the warranty) then put the extra you would have spent on a higher level of cover (or warranty) in a high iterest savings account. That way when you come to need it (maybe not for years) it will be there in the bank + interest and not wasted in the insurers/dealers pocket (& you can always dip in to for a few choice mods )

Yeh thats a fair philosophy, I'd end up spending the money though

me too
