Newbie - M2C 18 months 600 miles

Hi all,

Newbie here, and I hope I have posted in the right place!

Last BMW I owned was in 2010 when I brought a new E92 M3 which I owned for about 2 years and really enjoyed the ownership of that car.

Last week I inadvertently drove a M2 comp and loved it! It felt like my old E92 in many ways (no V8 of course) and 3 days later I brought a 2018 (Dec) M2 Comp for a little weekend toy!

Unbelievably (and one of the big reason I brought this car) was it only had covered 600 miles on the clock from new, which did raise a few questions but so far so good no issues!

My question is in regards to servicing - given its 18 months old but only covered 600 miles should the car have been serviced in those 18 months? even though it hasn't technically even hit the 1200 required for the run in service.... I'm not too concerned given it's low mileage means any oversight shouldn't have caused any issues for the car.

I have the car booked in next week (as I would have hit the 1200 miles) and BMW have said they will see what is required. I did stress if they do the run in service I can't see it needing whatever they change at that time having to be done again in 6 months when its 2 years old.......

The BMW employee said it's not often a car has such low miles at that age.

Thanks all
