My little car's  MOT  and Service is due this month.
Mine is a 2014  Fiat Panda.

I don't do many miles a year nowadays,  probably only about 3,000 or so.
For the last 2 years they have only done a small Interim service  because of the low mileage.

I wondered what others do about their annual service?   
Do you have it done along with the MOT,  and do you advise the big service each year, alternating with the small service in between?
Do you do a lot of mileage annually,  or very little?

I'm low mileage too but not lots of short journeys which are not good for cars. I tend to mostly pick up a bagful of shopping several times a week on the return leg of a walk with the occasional trip by car to stock up on bulk stuff. I don't use supermarket deliveries. I do use Amazon quite a lot.

I just let them follow the service schedule.

I very seldom use my Peurgeot 206.. she is 23 years old.. 
My local garage where I purchased her new do my MOT and if they think she needs a service they do that as well.. They collect her and bring her home... They are just a couple of (lanes) away.. 
Don't ask me.. I know nuffink..

I don't do many miles now mainly because my car is 21 years old and I'm a bit wary.  If I had a newer car I'd venture further.  The garage alternates with the services on my Fiesta.
