It's all mileage based. Only stipulations is if you don't hit the mileage in 2 years you need to do an additional oil service in between the next due service.

So basically an oil service as a minimum every 2 years. Anything else is just personal preference.

Thanks, So it is just the oil if just sitting there. Mines saying not due in 15k miles and had my oil and filters changed last month, just want to cherish this car you can't get much better for under 20k IMO I can see them firming up a lot the next couple of years not many people have a bad word about them and I havnt seen another one around the roads by mine for about 3 years!

I'm sticking to oil service, inspection 1, oil service, inspection 2. All done on time as I don't do the mileage, so a maximum of 4 years between inspection services.

Also do a yearly oil change myself in between the specialist-indy services.

Yeah as far as I'm aware; so oil service, inspection 1, oil service, inspection 2, then repeat.

Looks about right.
So your inspection 1 should be in 15k or 2yrs from your last oil service, whichever is sooner.

It has had an oil service too many. The 22015 should have been an inspection one.

I wouldn't worry about it now though, enough time/mileage has passed.
