I bought mine with the thought I would do some, but probably not all, of my own work. For the first three years I was too busy to do much, retirement will hopefully be better. So far, I replaced the rods for the convertible top after foolishly breaking them, and just finished servicing the front brakes. Balance has been done by the dealer, and I will have them do an upcoming inspection before PCA DE in August. The dealer labor rate seems high, but parts, while expensive, aren't too bad compared to the import costs from US websites since the exchange and shipping kills the cost advantage. Plus, the parts manager told me he can drop off any parts orders I have to my house! Going forward I will probably review the tools and parts required, along with the amount of effort and degree of crawling under the car and weather (concrete can get quite cold and I'm a wimp_ before deciding.
