I've been offered a 5yr service plan and 5yr warranty by the BMW dealership I got my m235i from but there's only so much i'm willing to be out of pocket right now as both these require a 2.4k-2.7k upfront payment each. If I had to pick one or the other, which do you reckon is going to be more useful/utilised during my ownership of the vehicle? The N55s are reliable and I'm gravitating towards the service plan at the moment.

EDIT: Had a closer look, and the 5 yr warranty for the age and class of the m235i make it a Cat C, so the warranty actually cost a whopping $4,270 incl GST.

On that note, for owners who bought a pre-owned or m235i out of warranty, what is the most commonly travelled route? Just major servicing with an indie mech, DIY regular oil changes and no manuf. warranty?
