Buying a Vauxhall Insignia without warranty - how much discount should I ask for?

I have agreed a price with a private seller for a 2012 Vauxhall Insignia, but it now transpires that the manufacturer’s warranty has been invalidated as the first service has not been completed on time, should I ask for the price to be reduced?

Yes. Reduce by at least £2000.
