Guys, some noob question:-
I'm about to buy 2nd hand 408 Turbo.
1) Will the warranty void for the 2nd owner?
2) If the schedule services schedule miss for 1 month (due to its being in the used car), will the warranty void? eventhough the millage is still far from the its suppose millage service schedule.
3) How much usually will cost me for 40k km service?

Yes, I'm fully aware of the new price 2014 models. But I go for the 2nd for a reason.
The price is rm75k otr. plus it really seem like a new car, the owner rarely used it, as the millage only 20k after 2years 1month from day its register. the interior is really2 clean as well. so, I think it is a good deal...
Additional question:-
4) if the previous owner got free service (5 years or what ever), will I get the privilege as well?
5) What will it covers in the free service? Part? fluids? or only labour?
$75K is good price,especially since you say the car is in good shape & only done 20K. However I want to explain something to you. It all depends how you take my advice.
Warranty is already void,becomes void the moment service is missed 14days beyond service date, even though mileage is low. Peugeot France is very strict on this!
Many will tell you avoid buying this car,since no warranty. The dealer will swear that's not true and warranty is valid. The choice to buy or not, is yours!
My advice,buy this car, but at a lower price. Use the no warranty to bargain for lower price. Start below $70K and try to close the deal at $70K max. This model has proved reliable, so no worries. You may face some QC issues,which you'll have 5K from the purchase price to use if needed. That is also the reason why I'm telling you to close the deal at $70K max, the $5K can be used as QC issues buffer!
Since no warranty, you can service your car at a good non SC workshop. This will cost much cheaper! 40K service is just oil & oil filter change which will cost $500 at SC. You can get this done at $300+ at non SC workshop. I advice you to use AMSOIL fully synthetic or Mobil 1.
I can't comment on free service as I don't know the details. Various promotion were offered at different periods. Use the car number and check at NASA outlet on the package. They will have records and details. If this is not transferable, use this as a bargain point for price negotiation.
DON'T take the dealers word,he'll swear it's transferable, he'll lie like hell to make the sale!Do your own checking!
You can always get advice on issues from us. Good luck!
