I think auto lights is a great feature, but it can be annoying: I use a Peugeot 208 as a runabout. When driving along tree-lined country roads on a sunny day, the lights keep switching on/off all the time. Unfortunately, you can't adjust the sensitivity... On the other hand, when the auto-wipers go over a certain speed/fequency, the lights get activated automatically , which I think is a neat feature.

I remember the days when cars did not have reversing lights. How ever did we cope!?

Welcome aboard. Extended warranty is very much a question of personal choice, and is something that has been discussed extensively in this forum... just do a search. PErsonally, given that the car is very reliable, I do not think it is worth the money. Remember that, buying from a dealer, you will be covered for the first year. This should help iron out any fault you may find with the car. On the other hand, I recommend the service plan. It is inflation proof, typically saves you 15% on your scheduled maintenance bills, and helps with budgeting. @Tom... would be interested to hear if your warranty will cover the water pump. I would expect this to be a "wear and tear" item, and therefore not to be covered.
