I had my CPO '08 with 19K miles in for a software update yesterday--I bought it with 16K miles on it so I wanted them to make sure it had the 2 year brake fluid flush on it (or when the computer tells you). Going through the service history on with my SA they did do that at the dealer in L.A. and also it also had all 4 pads replaced already. Now whether I go 15K miles and need pads again that is the question and I'm sure the rotors will start to go around 30-40K (they did that on my e53). And I believe at some point you just need to replace the rotors when you do the pads as normal mechanical sequence due to the labor involved. Also, the 100K mile spark plug change is covered under the extended maintenance.
So, a lot of unknowns on costs. Most haven't driven their e70s past the 4 year mark (since most lease) and probably none to the 100K miles. I ended up buying the maintenance plan. But I also just used an Indy on my '01 e53 when I had it so I see advantages either way.
