Anything in particular need attending to at a 20k service other than oil/air filters and a general checkover?
I assume the plugs are long life and don't need to be changed yet?
Many thanks.

i did my plugs at 50k miles in my monaro , they were only changed due to age rather than mileage , they were fine and had life in them , the monaro the plugs have been in it for ages i think about 10 years lol , changed them recently at 80 k again done due to age and not mileage they were again fine , iridium or platinum plugs are normally good for 60k miles but i tend to change at 50k , how long they have been in the car seems less of a problem but you hope they don’t get seized in , which mine were not seized after 10 years or so , did my r8 ones too again little wear , i bought via rock auto , always worth getting a set of ht leads as they get fragile and can break when changing plugs , i have a set of ht heat socks on the leads about 12£ from ebay
