Over 60k Miles, what gives?

[Johnnywb]

Just reading another thread on BMW's Warranty and have seen again that the price of the warranty shoots up at 60,000 miles (unless you're on the direct debit i think ).

Just wondering why this is. I know that many parts will be designed for a certain life period, so i can only assume that BMW know that something failry major has a life of about 60,000 miles

For those who are over 60,000 miles, what kinds of issues have you had? is there a recurring theme?

Living in London, £1,000 for a the comp warranty is worth it, as the CSL does seem to throw up little niggles and labour rates are , but i'm not sure whether £2,200 odd would be worth it.
