What is it, and more importantly, do I need one? :? ) Got me intrigued too, I'm guessing some kind of irrigation/sprinkler system. Car looks lovely...

Vin report from dealer will do it. Mine was interesting reading.

Mine is saying oil change in October 2021 (roughly a year after I bought it from OPC who did a service as part of the deal). I wonder if I take it out on a few long runs post lockdown whether that’ll push it out too. I’d rather the car adjusts it based on use than be fixed at 12 months. I'm sure it...
