Hey everyone,
I'm officially picking up my eGolf tomorrow! (And just under the wire before the Ontario incentive ends on September 10th - which is marvelous because without it, I can't afford the car).
I'm super excited, I was starting to doubt it was ever going to happen. But it has finally arrived at the dealership and I can't believe it. It's a 2018 Model in Atlantic Blue, with the Technology Package.
The last thing I'm debating is whether to get the extended warranty or not. I would be covered for 8 years instead of the 4 years of the base warranty. I'm wondering if it's worth it - I could get it for approx. $2200 Canadian. Do you guys think it's worth it? And do you think any of the additional protection (protection against stone chips, paint sealant and appearance protection, etc.) is worth getting?
I read on another post that an extended warranty is wasted on electric cars - is that the case you guys found to be true? It's impossible to say what could go wrong in year 7 or 8 because no eGolf is old enough to tell the tale - but how have things been going so far?
Also - any last tips for this newbie before the big day?
