Merged: Service Cost & Intervals

I bought an A250e saloon (V177) 2020 reg last July with 77k on the clock.

It has full MB service history with the last service having being done Last april which on the documentation says they have performed service B however under the repalced/renewed column it says they performed Service A with plus package which is a little confusing. That service was done at 76k miles.

The service before that was done in August 2023 which was a Service B with the following Replaced/Renewed:
  • Battery for Keyless-GO key replaced
  • Air filter element replaced
  • Spark plugs replaced
  • Automatic transmission: oil and filter change
  • Engine: oil and filter change

This service was done at 60k miles.

Im next due a service in April this year or 91k miles, I have looked at getting a service plan and im quoted at £960 or £40 a month for two services and two MOTs. That feels quite steep given it averages at roughly £480 per service so im wondering if it worth it. To my understanding the gearbox service is every 40k miles so if they dont do it this year theyll do it next year and so is it worth still paying for the service plan as PAYG might still be more expensive if theres another gearbox service incoming?
