I agree...
the M140i I owned used BMW's variable service system and when it went at 9 months old the first service was shown as being due when the car would have been 2.5 years old. Given the CPU monitors a myriad of variables I think this made sense. But MMC probably don't use brake wear indicators and so on, so I guess it will be an annual service or 15,000 miles, whichever is soonest.

The Plus 8 is little different, likewise the two AMGs. Modern cars don't need servicing, in the way even 1990s cars did. All the wear items that we used to check self check: the A35 even shows tyre pressure and temperature all the time whilst driving!

So, the PlusSix offers the DIY mechanic little or no opportunity, and at the annual service a diagnostic computer is needed that can talk to Morgan Motor Company, not BMW.
