Compare Land Rover interim service quotes from specialist garages

While Land Rover was founded in 1978, most people don't know that the Series I Land Rover actually predates the brand by 30 years, making it the second-oldest four-wheel drive vehicle in history. Land Rover is also closely linked to the Royal Family, providing the first bespoke ‘State Review' car in 1953.

The brand is associated with the spirit of adventure, and it's easy to see why; not only were its vehicles the first to cross the Darien Gap, but they were also supplied for "the Olympics of 4x4" - a competition in which teams of two would drive hundreds of kilometres, tackling the most challenging terrain, competing for a win in Land Rover cars.

An interim car service - sometimes called a minor car service - involves inspecting several key car components and systems, including a safety assessment, engine oil change and fluid check.

The car service schedule for an interim service is every six months or every six thousand miles. As a driver, following this guidance is smart because if you don't, you may not realise a problem is developing, and it could cost you more money later down the line. Interim services can catch potential problems early.

The difference between an interim and full service is the number of components checked; a full service is more comprehensive. Likewise, the difference between a vehicle health check and interim service is that the former only includes the inspection of various parts. In contrast, the latter may consist of an oil change and the topping up of other fluids.
