2001km for 1st service! Challenge is on..

Part guesswork and a bit of luck as I tried to roll into the dealership bang on the 2000km service.
The gauntlet is down for anyone getting the service period right on the mileage. (Photos necessary of course!)

Not to be obtuse, but how does this prove you were in for service at this mileage? It's just a photo of your odo.

This is true, but it was at the dealership, honest guv!

At the same time I was having a new front tyre as got a sizey nail through it, which made for an expensive first visit.

Your 1200 mile service was not free?

Thanks, hadn't really looked at tire replacement cost yet, but was guessing somewhere around that figure anyway. This may have already been posted, but you have to pay for your first service outside of the US ?

Nope, I bought the car in the uk and had its first service done here in Germany but I would have to get the 'service pack' or some such to get that apparently..

Annoyingly yes. I'm hoping to offload this next year if/when the CS comes along, fingers crossed.

As he said, yes; however, if you're doing ED, you can get reimbursed for it when you get back.
