Default Mmm 1 year old - keep warranty or not??

As my first service is due, should I go official or take it to a specialist who may arguably do a better job? I realise that I will lose the warranty, but am thinking of tuning the bollox off it anyways - I am doing about 5,000 miles a year...

What would you do?

If its a Either.. Dealer or specialist case..

Go for Dealer mate

If it has mods etc.. go for specialist.

If no mods, well worth main dealer

You dont lose your warranty having your car serviced at another garage.
As long as, and i think the legal wording is, you use parts of equal or better quality than the manufacturers. And that is now a European law. You cannot lose your warranty for having it serviced elsewhere.
Now if you got mod's, then obviously you have no warranty!
LOL. Like me
