....coming up.
How time flies; one minute you're dragging your feet waiting for delivery and the next you've booked your pride and joy in for it's first year service.
I was expecting a full service costing around £200+ but when I gave my mileage to the service dept they said that as it was so low (2600 miles approx) then it would only need a suitable service including oil and filter change and the cost would be £130.
He said they had changed the way cars are serviced by basing it more on mileage travelled rather than 'because it's 12 months old'. Things like the pollen filter are excluded as there's no way that will need replacing.
Pleasant surprise that was.
