Ok then all set now for Monday.

Thanks again for your help.

vSPyvSPy - thanks also but I think I confused you too - the car had a service at 22700ks when I bought it in March this year. What I'm trying to do at this time is just get it back to round numbers for the services and get the servicing where it should be for the age/k's of the car.
I can definately say I will be driving it a lot lot more than the previous owner & just want to start off properly.

Hopefully no more dumb questions for awhile .... but who knows?

When buying any used car I always recomend to get everything done, Oil all filters, plugs, diff,G/box oil coolant thermostat and brake fluids that way you know its been done properly and to the standard in wich you like. It gives you a peice of mind and that way you can setuo your next services around what has been done not what may have been done.

Thanks everyone for your advice.
Dab, I thought I had had everything brought up to date - my fault for just having the next logbook service done without actually checking what that service covered.

Oh well, today she had the equivalent of a combined 4yr & 30000k service.
Fluids, plugs etc all nice & new now so we can share many more happy drives together...
