Audi Assist - worth it?

Hello all, I have been the proud owner of a silver 2004 1.4 petrol A2 for almost exactly a year now - and having downsized from a much larger BMW I can honestly say I don't regret it for a moment. This site has been absolutely brilliant for answering all the questions I've had so far - so thanks to you all.

When I bought my A2 from Audi last year it came with a year's warranty and a year's Audi Roadside Assistance (with RAC).
It's now coming up for renewal time - and I can do so for £89 for an additional year. Do you think its worth it? Normal RAC cover would be less than this, but do you think its worth paying the extra for the so-called 'Specialist Audi technicians on hand 24 hours a day!'?
 
I wholeheartedly agree. When I bought my first A2 from new in June 05, the gearbox self destructed in a car park. Audi Assist were brilliant and, although really RAC, I do think their service levels are higher. Recently renewed Audi Assist on both my A2s this month and although a little bit more expensive than RAC in its own name, there is something feel good about dealing with the Audi brand. Look I've come all over gushing now!
 
Do they offer an extended warranty with this and if so how much? In view of the potentially expensive warranty claims I have had so far ( fortunately covered with my Audi Used car warranty) I may extend mine if available.
 
Audi do offer an extended warranty coupled with Assist - but it is pretty expensive. Cannot recall exact amount but circa £400.
