My last Bronze service was last Sept. with my WOF. I've just had my next WOF on 21 April. I didn't think it was necessary to have my car serviced again then as I had only done 2837 km. Since then I have received notification from AA re service was due again 21 April. Would appreciate your advice. My car is a 1994 Toyota Tercel.

Hi Annabel,
It is recommended to have a vehicle serviced at least once a year (hence the reminder), it is understandable that with such low km's it would seem unrealistic to have another service just yet.
I don't recommend leaving it any longer than 18 months between services as vehicle components age with both time and km's travelled.

Thank you for your reply. I will leave it till my next WOF in 6 mths as I always have low km's.
