its just come up to a year of owning my roc so i was thinking about servicing! so thought id check when it needs it on the mfd and is say 118 days or 4000 miles time does this sound right?
Do i have to have a service at 12 months or do i follow what the car says to me?
i think my service plan is every 12 months or 12000 miles whichever comes first
thanks in advance folks

I did mine at 12 months with about 8500 on the clock. The mfd thing was pretty much spot on for the day count.

Re: service question
the service interval can depend on your style of driving nosreap (short journeys/long journeys etc) so don't worry but it can't hurt going in & asking

Re: service question
You are on the long life servicing plan by the sounds of it. You should only go for a service after 12 months or 10,000 km if you are on the time and distance plan.
£90 for a time and distance service for me.
