R56 Avoid all 3rd party Extended warranties!!!

I have the 100k service agreement, and from what I understand, if the service is needed within 1000 miles before or after you hit 100k, it's covered.
This is not so with the warranty, just the service agreement. But, I'll double check.
I got a quote an an extended warranty from AAA, they have several plans average cost about 2500, the best one 3600. Of course, like MINI, they offer 0% financing but still, I really think I'm just going to take my chances that nothing goes wrong with the car, and try to keep a little next egg in case it does.
If I did decide to get the EW, I'd go with AAA's 'approved' 3rd party. I mean if you can't trust AAA, who can ya trust?

I have heard from others on NAM and elsewhere on the Net that AAA does in fact offer excellent extended service or repair contracts. In fact, I think AAA's contracts are genuine extended warranties. One of the few out there offering such. Not sure, but I think they even offer "bumper to bumper" coverage rather than that con artist technique of what is included or excluded in the contract.

Be careful, that AAA coverage is not offered in all states and there are a lot of fraudulent companies pretending to be AAA. Look at this Site, they even make their logo to look like AAA's.
