For those that only use the SLK once a while,
how do you know when would the next service be? 10,000km may take you 3 years to do ??? Is it bad for your car? Does any SLK appreciates in value in your country?

Computer would timeout and call for service if it's not driven enough.

It's whatever comes first miles or time.

Dan is right, mileage or time frame, whatever comes first. I normally have my oil/filter change once a year at the minimum.

Weekend/fun car....never seen the rain. My M35x or wifes QX56 is the daily. Have about 1800mi on it now (500 since purchase). I look for excuses to take it out and now with the babysmart seat it has become a favorite of my sons. Enjoy looking/tinkering with it almost as much as driving...ok not that much
