How many miles has it done & what work/service items did the previous owner carry out & when? If it is a fresh import or dont have much old info then I would do:

Engine Oil
Oil Filter
Air Filter
Spark Plugs
Coolant
Diff Oil
Gearbox oil
Brake fluid
Check brake pads & discs & confirm map is good, (reputable)

6 Months/6k mile (10k km) oil change, then the rest is pretty much similar to a classic service shedule (ie 4 years on the cambelt etc), but if you service the car as a DCCD spec classic (it needs more regular gearbox oil changes), then you should be laughing.

Its a Litchfield Type 20 with 35k which has been looked after by themselves and Powerstation. Cambelt has been done.
How often is the gear/diff oil need changing? Also is the diff oil the same as the gear oil?

I have a 2006 T20 too, also serviced by Litchfields till now. As above, every 6 months, oil and filter, then main service 6 months on with diff & g/box oils etc, then alternating back to oil change and so on, plus cambelt etc every 50k or 4 yrs.

I do believe it's on Litcho's site.

btw- where would you guys buy a cambelt for the above? What parts does it need - two belts??

Yes, you should be using a LSD specific (gear oil with LSD properties) 75w-90 oil for the rear diff (as it has a plated LSD) and a good quality 75w-90 gearbox oil for the box.
