18,000 miles or 12 months
costs vary at each interval - call the dealership.

The service book only states every 18000 miles and makes no mention of 18000 miles or 12 months.

Re: Service on 1.4 sporting

I think its 1800 miles for diesel engines on sporting, for petrol is 12000 miles.
Correct me if i am wrong.
Been at my dealer today, and asked them price for service my GP 1.9 sporting, was bit shocked-£318 for service for diesel.
Anyway you can see service on your trip computer.

Re: Service on 1.4 sporting

It is Grande Punto,
My ex Volvo s40 new shape was cheaper to service, it would cost me at Volvo dealer £240 for service. But Volvo could not put smile on my face when i was driving. Grande Punto can!

Re: Service on 1.4 sporting

My arnold clark dealer does a 3 year service plan for £249....thats 3 services to me......:-)...well worth it...they also do 2 year warranty for £349 with 2 free mot's...again well worth it when the M/F & Dealer warranty runs out.

He does say that the warranty is for after the original warranty runs out, which would be three years so MOT's would then be due

Always wary of the value of 'off the shelf' warranties. The list of things they don't cover is longer than the list of repairs it does!!!
