I am doing some math in my head. Based on your driving you will have in the next two years:
- 2 oil changes - $500
- set of brake pads (maybe) - $600

Is there a spark plus service at 40K or 50K? I would RTFM but I don't have my M anymore. If there is you can add that service.

I don't see you getting $3000 out of that package. And I always recite the basic money principle, "Money now is better than money later." I can't remember who formed that theory (might be Smith) but since you are still in school you may remember if from an economics class.

Put the $3000 in a high interest account and pull from it for service until you sell the car. Then if you don't use it you can actually keep the rest.
