Just thought I'd pass this on, and I have nothing to do with this mob
or allstates!
Whilst doing my research into what's available as far as used car warranties I stumbled across a site called www.carbroker.com.au.
You can purchase the All States Warranty from them at basically cost price.
The wholesale yard that I was talking to offer me the 3 year advantage allstates warranty for $799. I can get it myself for $559.95! Saving of $240!!!
They also sell a doouble deluxe advantage with cheese and bacon!
for ~$750. Covers motor for $4000, Transmission for $4000 etc etc.
You can also read the terms and conditions, the fine print to see exactly whats covered.
Again I have nothing to do with any of it, just thought someone else may benefit.
Have a look if you're considering a warranty when buying a used car.
cheers

Thought I share an experience I had in the UK with a car warranty bought through the second hand dealer, when I bought the car.
Things were going great, the car was going
well, I had the RAC warranty certificate in my car file – it was on pre-printed RAC paper the dealer had filled in the blanks and put his stamp on it, it all looked sweet, then he SHOULD of sent it to RAC with payment.
When I wanted to claim I didn’t want to go
miles back to the dealer so called RAC to find a local place to fix the problem. RAC hadn’t heard of my certificate number or even the dealer in question. The dealer had taken my money for the warranty and not sent the insurers copy to the insurer, thus pocketing the 150 quid the warranty cost.
Hope nothing like that has happened to anyone here.
