I ordered and specced my M2 with the service pack in November which was quoted at £800 for the 5 year pack. The car arrived at the dealers a week before Xmas so I asked that it not be registered until the new year, I pick it up in a week.

So I am now being told that the £800 dealer was for cars registered by the end of 2016 so BMW are now asking the dealer to charge me £999 instead.

I'm not sure this is now good value given that I don't anticipate doing more than 10,000 miles per year. Can anyone advise the cost if I just fund all the services over the first 5 years based on 10K miles per year?

thanks

I'm taking delivery of an M2 in March and I've just spoken to my local dealer regarding the service plan.

The service plan costs £800 if you buy it within 60 days of date of registration of the car and includes the running in service, 1st and 2nd service within 5 years or 50,000 miles, whichever is sooner.

If you purchase a service plan over 60 days from date of registration the cost is £990 and the same services apply and mileage or time frame.

You also don't have to buy the service plan from the dealer you're buying the car from. I am buying the M2 from one dealer and thr service plan from my local dealer. My local dealer couldn't get me a car before Q1 2018.

Not sure why you would buy the service plan from a different place to where you bought the car. The plan covers any BMW garage.
I would hope so as I've bought the car new in Edinburgh (pick it up next Saturday) but live in Surrey so will use a local dealer smile

Dealer says the £800 was a discounted price for 2016 only, so if you buy the plan in 2017 it should be £999

If you put down a deposit with the understanding you had a 5 year service plan then that's what you should have got.
My dealer is honouring the 5 year service plan at £800 car arrives in March.
Of course they should honour it but the 5 year service plan has been withdrawn, so you're dealer can discount the 3 year one but can't give you the 5 year one, as I think you'll be informed in March.
