We've a 2017 Lounge with 14k miles. If we try, we might do 1k miles this year.

Service schedule is supposed to be annual. But, despite my overwhelming urge to service it (because I hate missed services) is it rational to do it?

They used to be once every 2 years, and I am wondering whether to drop back to that.

Thoughts, chaps?

It's a difficult question. My Abarth only did 2000 miles in 2020 for obvious reasons and I was loathed to service it but I wanted to keep a perfect service history.

I do the servicing myself anyway so it wasn't an issue but I didn't bother changing the pollen filter but did everything else.
