What's the time based service ? Vehicles are milage or time. I'd imagine it's 20k or 2 years. Servicing it every 4 is fools folly as the oil will have a heap of water in from condensation from sitting...

I like the floor! What is it, genuine floorboards, engineered wood or that fancy wood effect vinyl stuff?
View Articlenewrobdob on "Another house renovation, but not professional!"
