Can I ask for service prices?
HI,
I was just wondering. What are people's service prices - i mean not the published prices by Mercedes ask for standard services - but what does it really cost to you to take your cars in to be serviced? Would be interesting to know...

More than £450 for my first service.
Totally expensive but did include full brake fluid replacement. I can afford it, but it still seems like a rip-off to me. BMW is much, much cheaper.

Here in the States...service is included for the life of the main warranty.
My understanding is that was altered in '05 to be one main service at roughly 13,000 miles.
