M6 driven 8 miles during service

[matt21]

My M6 is in for its big service today including vehicle check. The car has been driven 8 miles. Is this normal?

To be fair the “vehicle check” service (waste of money) does say road test. They used 4 litres of fuel during the whole service so about 10mpg.

Guess it is what is is, I will ask the question when I pick it up anyway and have a good check over.

Just to close this off. They claim all M cars need a test drive to get to the car warm to check oil level. Guess it is what it is. They offered twice to pay for the fuel (4 litres). I said I wasn’t bothered but they insisted. Saved a few pounds on a £750 service...!
