Aren't BMWs on condition based servicing these days?

That dealership excuse sounds like complete nonsense to squeeze an early service out of you, especially when even their own sales guys disagreed. I've had similar dealership runarounds with service schedules before where they try to tie it to manufacture or PDI dates rather than actual hand-over, but BMW UK really ought to set that straight. Definitely hold your ground on this one and let us know what corporate says!

It can be condition based or time/mileage based, dependent upon the users anticipated mileage.

In my case, certainly no more than 5000 miles per year.
In fact, l've just looked and l'm currently on 6700 miles since March 2025

And we just have 1 service per year immaterial of miles covered, life can be simpler
