I believe the car has to be a certain age, mine is X 2001 and they said that I couldnt extend it, got my car in late November 2005

SO for the next 11 months intend to drive it alot and make the most of it.

I JUST READ Your post again
---------------------------------

You got it privately hmmm am not sure then drop them a call, I believe it must have full VW History and service.

What should happen is that before your warranty expires they will send you a notification letter (in my case several, obviously they want you money!) and this will give you details on how to renew. Now the problem is that there was a problem with the VW warranties, something to do with the financial regulatories and VW had to with-hold from renewing any warranties, this was last August and as far as I am aware they have not resumed the warranty service, would be interested in in finding out if they are still able to offer it though. You might want to give them a call, please let us know how you get on...thanks.

Oh pants...fell for the same mistake, didn't read it properly! Man, you should put the 'privately' in bold!
