I have a 93 2.2 TiD w/ 125HP and the services are: first at 12 months or 10,000KM; after that, every 20,000 Km (ie 2nd at 30,000, 3rd at 50,000 and so on). I recently tried a 93 SS (2002) and really it has more grip and improved driving (with lots of electronic aids, like ESP, etc.); but the engine is less responsive; i don't know if the gear box is different or it's because the engine was far too new...
