30K service now or after the winter?

This question seems simple, but I'd like advice please. It's nearly time for my coupe to have its 30K service (I'm at 29K). In a month or so it'll be off the road till spring. Do I bring it in and take care of this now (and then pretty much let it sit) or wait till I'm daily driving it again in April? I won't garage it completely all winter, but the driving will be short (on snow-free days only of course). Thoughts?

i say...change your oil and filter just to get you through the winter, then have the 30k service when it starts to warm up.

It'd be perfect to have a nice 30k service done near the beginning of spring. It's like have a good ol' fresh start for upcoming year.

Deez - that's also what I was thinking. Makes sense and saves most of the $ till later. Thanks.
