Well, there's a good review here, Sam, and the majority of Amazon customers seem to like it. 

As for the five year warranty, I certainly wouldn't recommend you buy it, but shop around and get it free!  John Lewis will price match, and offer the free extended warranty, so if you can find it at a good price, and there's a JL nearby, it's worth the effort.  There will also be other dealers who offer the 5 year warranty, including PRC Direct (but you have to purchase in store), and others, if you Google, but I would advise the JL route, if you can.

Is it worth getting these extended warranty? Whats the likelyhood it will die?

No and slim, Sam. IAC, the Sale of Goods Act covers you for six years.

[Simon]

Not doubting the 6 year SoG thing, Rik, but I've yet to hear of anyone invoking a claim under it.

[Rik]

It does work, but you'd get little in years 5/6.

I may go for the 32" version and save £200 about. 40" may still be a bit too big and probably only used for bragging rights? lol

So without the warranty, secretly, I am actually fully covered in the scenario that it actually does die/go wrong/un acceptable degrading?

This gets a good rating sony-kdl-32v4000-32-lcd

Worth reading the thread about it in the link and i'm sure John Lewis is the same price (or price match) with 5 years warranty.

I may go for the 40v4000 as its 40", 1080p, good enough in the reviews iv seen plus its the same price as the 32" i was looking at (the 32w4000)
