Just joined the PCGB ... apologies in advance for any errors I should make during posting on the forum ... no doubt I'll be told if I do!
First ownership of a Porsche.
Bought the car in May 2015 with mileage of 68,758 ... last service in record book by a Porsche Specialist in London was March 2014, with mileage at 66k. Prior to that it was Porsche main dealer services since new.
Current mileage is 71,431.
Please can anyone suggest when I ought to be getting it serviced next ... or is it overdue, also any recommendations as to where to take it? ... Porsche Exeter? - if so what sort of cost am I to expect here? verses a Specialist somewhere near Taunton - again any ideas of the likely cost?
Thanks - Keatesy

 
What does the service book show as service frequency. If it is 2 years or 20K miles it will be March 2016.

I use Exeter Centre who have a very good reputation for servicing or there is SCS near Honiton that some Club members use.
 
As a minimum you should at least change the oil every year or 12,000 miles, whichever is sooner, but I would recommend a proper annual service every 12 months even if you only cover low mileages.
If Porsche Bournemouth is too far to travel, Porsche Exeter have an equally good reputation. As far as independants are concerned, Tim O'Dowd at Marque 21 in Bridport knows his stuff and is an all-round good guy, but closer to you is Crispen Manners at Oaktree Garage and what he doesn't know about Porsche's etc...
 
I believe that up to model year 2003 service was at one yearly intervals. 2004 onwards went to two yearly.
