hey guys, did a quick search from my phone but couldn't find any recent info but are there any aftermarket warranty for the e55? looking at 03-05 e55's but will only consider getting the car if it has a warranty...

You need to go home and use your regular computer to do the search. FYI,there are atleast 100 threads about the extended warranty that were started in last 2 weeks.
Hope that helps.

If nobody ever started a thread about a specific topic, there wouldn't be any search results.

Seasons greetings.

Don't mind the bah humbugs. Yes , there are quite a few different warranties available. From searching it appears that MB , easy care, Assurant are the good ones. Fidelity/fidelis are terrible.

I just got my warranty booklets and paper work from One Republic. 4yr 75K for $3250 and zero deductible. It is nice insurance although my girl rarely moves unless it is bath time or special events time

I just love seeing her in the garage looking all pretty every morning.

Good job! Now there are about 101 threads about warranty.

allenjdmb

find out, my experience with Fidelity has been quite good. You'll probably get as many opinions as responses.

Alexbenz

thanks for the info fellas.....i was at the laker game earlier and tried to pull up some info but the treads that poped up weren't recent and i've heard some of the aftermarket companies that some used were gone and or not covering the e55 any longer....

i've always loved the w211

how's the car, mpg wise?

Followed by rain. Somehow very appropriate.

As far as the cars, look for an 06. Reliable warranty companies will not warranty these cars if they are more then 5 years old or if they have had their factory warranty expire. I have Murcury/Fidelity and they have been 10000% AMAZING. It cost money to buy it but it has paid it self off 3x since I got it, ONE YEAR AGO!

MPG? dont even bother if you really care. I'm getting 7-9 city and 12-14 fwy.

Bro, you drove 4 miles averaging 5mph, what do you expect? You could get better gas milage letting it idle.

Alex - I have an '04 low miles and with regular maintenance I have found this car to be extremely reliable car... and (omg for those that object) I drive mine in every weather imaginable, even owning another car. I get 14mpg and wouldn't dream of having something different for the daily commute

WPOZZZ

Another happy Fidelity customer. When i got my E55 this past summer, the PO had the Fidelity coverage and I just needed to send it $40 to transfer it over. A couple weeks later, some things broke on the car to the tune of $2k+ and all was covered except for shop supplies and some other things that didn't break yet, but I told them to change it out. My coverage ends in October so I'd be happy if I could find another carrier after that.

TheVazha

Dood I'm not kidding, I never get better then 9.9 city. I don't even drive fast. You have thin oxygen in Denver, I'm chocking down here!

tgoss

Speaking of choking... WTF happened today?!?! The fantabulous trio beating up on Kobe and friends? Unacceptable.

WPOZZZ

I'm at sea level and get @15-17 mpg overall.

TheVazha

Kobe is law in my book but he has left his soul on that court over his lifetime. Trades need to be made. Everyone is younger and hungry. We need Melo, trade him for Bynum and Brown. Teams out there are stacked and I'm not sure Kobe can carry the squad anymore.

Alexbenz

that's some horrible mpg's....i'd love to get a 06 but i want to mod it and my budget allows for something under 20k..

so the warranty companies won't cover a 04? or is it some of them?

Alexbenz

how long have you had the car for?


oh and the lakers are just fine....look how old those retarded green guys are and there doing fine....it's too early in the season for the lakers to bust there nut like the other teams.....i'd only worry if this was towards the end of the season...

tgoss

I've had the car since the day I joined this forum. October 15th 2009, so I'm just over a year now in ownership. Nothing has failed me except for the IC pump which that does everyone. I'm very meticulous with the cars maintenance (oil gets changed at every 4-5k miles) and if something is recommended to be done like a tranny flush or spark plugs I just have it done. I love the car to death so hopefully it will continue to love me back.

I agree with you on the lakers, I just despise LeBron for how he flaunts his "talents" and that ridiculous dog and pony show of ceremony they had for all three of those overpaid fools. My respect for Dwayne Wade has fallen so far...

Still have much love for Kobe I hope Kobe can rally and win 3 in a row again. And that's coming from a die hard Nuggets fan.

Alexbenz

well hopefully i'll be a w211 soon or else i'm looking at the G-wagon as well...just need to test drive the G and see how i like it....

i hear you on that, lebum bugs's me...he's like a little kid and wade is ehhh...out of them all i like bosh cause he's quite and does his thing...doesn't need to spot light

TheVazha

+1 on that. My b gets a detail once a week, including the engine. You can eat a steak off my sc after a couple runs. Whats the MBZ slogan these days "LOVE WHAT YOU DRIVE"?

Dood for the $$$ you will fork out on a half way decent G you can get into a PROPER 06 E55 with low miles!

Alexbenz

i've been eyeing 03 g500's just cause i've wanted a suv for a long time....i'll only consider the G if it drives good after the test drive and if i can get it for a little under 20k...

i drove an 06 cayanne and it didn't feel good and i don't like that many suv's out there....

Tunruh

4yr up to 100k mile mercury warranty around 5,000. as for a g they are overpriced completely. i had the chance to FULLY test drive the new panorama and cayenne turbo '11 both were very unexpected as far as power goes. although those are brand new. regular cayenne/s, wouldn't buy one.
