Cost of Extended Warranty for 6R GTI ??

Hello.
I would be grateful if any of you who have received quotes for a VW Extended Warranty to cover a 1.4 GTI for a 4th (and 5th?) year would give me some idea of the amounts involved.
I have a '13 GTI which is covered by a Das Welt Auto arrangement until late 2017, but am wondering how much it might cost me to continue coverage beyond that. I appreciate that it's impossible to know what figures might apply that far ahead, but a rough idea of what people would pay now would be of great interest to me.
Thanks :)

How many miles has yours done? And what do you do yearly?

Hello Alex. The mileage is currently 17400, and I'll be doing about 8k p.a.
Hope that helps.

I've paid £200 for the last 2 years on mine and had almost 15k in parts and labour well worth the money. Had a new engine block fitted November last year.

Wow, that's good value then! :)
If it's around £200 by the time I'm needing to get the Extended Warranty for mine, I'll be biting their hands off. My worry is that the fact that there seem to be a disproportionately large number of issues with the 1.4 GTI might cause VW to pump up the premiums :(
Thanks for your reply - much appreciated.
