3 years?!? Poor thing... You probably should do one. 3 years is a long time to let any car sit idle. Wonder what the engine oil looks like...
My Mondial only clocked 6000km (or about 4000 miles) during the last 6 years by the last owner. After some serious overhaul, it now drives great and is quite quick. |

Hi Tony, just to be safe I would just do the service...especially if you had not touched the car in 3 years. If your timing belt breaks, you will be VERY sorry you did not do that service. Just for your own piece of mind, do the 30k. |
