Tuscan Servicing by mileage or time?

[saulk]

Hi guys,

Got a couple of Tuscans to look at this week, I was wondering as when I had my 996 Turbo the servicing schedhule was either 12k miles or a year whatever came around sooner, is a TVR the same or is it purely on mileage. i'm looking at a couple of sub 10k mileage cars which have had 2 services, is this right?

Cheers

TVR's are 12 months or 6K miles which ever comes first.

Thankyou, that's what I thought.

A lot of mega low mileage cars have been dry stored and have hardly been used. The chances of these cars getting serviced annually is pretty slim. If a car has done 10 miles in a year and is only likely to do another 10 miles the following year, in practice it is hardly worth getting serviced annually.

If a car is doing less than 1,000 miles per year, you would expect it to get serviced every 2 or 3 years.

Obviously if a car was doing 12,000 miles per year then you would expect it to be serviced twice a year.

My 2000 Tuscan has done 1900 miles - had a 1000 service in 2004 and have just last week given it a 12000 service. All seems well!
