Should be 45K and 90K - so as yours was done at 32K it should need doing again at 77K.

Think that mght be newagers mate, mine is
50k or 5 years whichever comes first.
Doesn't really matter how often the car's used,
belts perish, fact of life unfortunately. If a £300
job saved me forking out 2k for an engine I know
what i'd be doing
