Could you elaborate further on this?
I am looking at this option as well with my purchase. I honestly do not know the schedule for Services A and B and I don't recall how often I had to do it with my previous E-class.
Thanks in advance.
My dealer actually told me that it wasn't worth it but he did not elaborate and I appreciate his honesty.

I am genuinely curious, because based on my back of the envelope calculation, it is awash.

I don't have the specific numbers handy but it was estimated to be 30-40% off of the A & B services iff you pre-pay based on the standard costs of those services (700 or 1k are numbers that ring a bell).

No more MB:(
It really depends on the dealer. I actually called my service guy while I was closing on a vehicle once and after getting the numbers from him I passed. Also remember if you are financing you will be paying interest on it. Ask someone at the service department at the dealer you will be using for service. Don't take the word of the sales or closing dept.
