I'm looking at a 2014 S V8 Convertible. It was originally sold on 7/31/14 and sold again as CPO on 6/30/16. Which of the CPOs would cover this car - the old 6 years or the new 7 years? I'm assuming it's the old 6 years since the original warranty for the car would have been the old 4 year / 50K, but thought I'd check with the collective brains of the forum.

As a side question, I believe Jaguar CPO follows the car, regardless of who it's sold to / purchased from - is this correct? The car is being sold by a 3rd party dealership.

Thanks,

The CPO warranty is not added at the end of the original warranty. It starts at the original date the car was first registered. Mine is a 2015 that was CPO this year, so my warranty covers everything until 2021.

 

One other thing to check on is how to transfer the CPO from the prior owner to you as that may be difficult if a dealer now owns it. Unless it's somehow automatically connected to the car for the duration of the CPO.

 

it is indeed tied to the car, as are any included maintenance appointments. When I bought my CPO, I inquired about this but was pleasantly surprised. The salesman took me over to a (very cute) service manager and she printed out a sheet with all of those records.

Aslo, the way I understand it, the 6 year CPO warranty (from original date of service) is standard. the 7th year can be purchased.

 

Never heard of buying a 7th year. I thought it was 7 years

 

The CPO warranty can be 1,2 or 3 years whichever you purchase when the car is certified. I opted for the 3 year CPO which gives me a total of 7 years or 100k.

 

It must be different for each dealer then, as my car was offered as CPO with the 7 years /160000 KM. I made my offer based on that. There was never a discussion of paying less for less warranty.

 

Thank you everyone for your answers. It seems there are varied experiences out there. If I get closer to pulling the trigger on this one, I'll double check with Jaguar USA to get the authoritative answer
