What's up Dogs.  My first post here, so stoked I've found this community.  Have read almost everything on this website containing the words "Dakar"  :glasses3:  I need to hear your comments, looking at buying a 2007 Dakar, with just over 20 000kms on the clock.  Was serviced at 1000, 10 000 and 20 000kms at the stealers, have confirmed this with the dealer who did the servicing, no history of other problems during it's life, but no annual servicing as required was done (did less than than 10k per year, this only happened once though in 2008).  Still trying to get hold of the first owner to establish if he maybe did an oil change in between, but in the meanwhile, worst case scenario let's say he did not, how important is an annual service, and is it very negative if you skip an annual service completely?

Waiting to hear from you and soon be part of the pack on my own Dakkie  :ricky:
