Service question

I think I already know the answer to this but thought I would ask.
My 110 is 12 months old, and has done 33500 miles. It has been serviced twice, at 12K and again at 24K. Now, it should of course have its next service at 36000 miles. But as it is 12 months old now, which takes precedence, the age or the mileage? I think I'll be fine to just wait until it has done 36000 as it has already been serviced twice before it was 12 months old. It wouldn't make much sense to service it again now when it has done a much lower weekly/monthly mileage since it hit 24K. I don't anticipate it hitting 36000 for at least another few months, but certainly it should do so before the end of the year.
I'm aware of some low milage vehicles having the 12K service at 12 months even though the milage is much lower than 12K.
Obviously i want to be sure my servicing schedule complies with warranty requirements.

Any thoughts?

"Obviously i want to be sure my servicing schedule complies with warranty requirements".

Every 12,000 miles you clock up or 12 months after the previous service to keep your warranty - It's all in the handbook service schedule! Or ring Lookers if you want to ask to bend the rules a little - doubt it! Get it serviced as per the schedule mileage obviously takes precedence over age.

Going on what you are saying then, I still have quite some time as it was last serviced in November. So so long as I do it before November or before 36000, whichever is soonest, then that fine? I have discussed my situation with Stratstones Aylesbury and they seemed fine with it?

Glad I understood your meaning. It didn't make sense that I would have to service it only 7 months after its last service and with only another 8000 on the clock. Its all theoretical anyway as I can hardly walk out of my house at the moment, nevermind drive anywhere, I just wanted to be sure I had worked it out right that I had plenty of time.

Why would anything need replacing/maintenance? That would suggest someone actually drove it somewhere

Stick in a 125 though and it could be a lot of fun

Tell someone you love them today because life is short.
But shout it at them in German because life is also terrifying and confusing...
