Nice write up but I don't agree with a lot they have said?
1. Cam belt and tensioner every 35,000 miles.
2. New Spark plugs every 10,000 miles.
3. Gearbox oil every 2 years.
4. Engine oil 15W50
5. Service intervals every 3,000 miles (far to often in my daily drive as I do approx 12,000 miles a year so a full service 4 times a year!)
