To oil service change, or to not oil service change?

[Apples]

Hi - sorry if this has been answered elsewhere. Have tried searching but am not an expert on this, so get a little confused by the comments! (PS Love the site, so helpful to a novice!)
I have a 2020 T6.1 that's just ticked over the 80,000 miles - we've done just over 11,000 miles in the 15 months we've had the van. Bought from a reputable conversion company and we're really pleased with the van. (Big up Spartan Campers).
Had a full service 6 months ago, included an oil change, however the "Oil Service" 800 miles light has just come on - we've probably done less than 5000 miles since the service, although have just completed an 1,800-mile two week trip.
My Q is, should it really need an oil change now given it was six months ago? Is it worth doing it as seems (from reading on here) for engine longevity, an annual/10000-mile oil change is the way to go?
TIA

Sounds like whoever serviced your van didn't reset the service interval indicator. If it were me, with your annual mileage, I'd change the oil annually.

Personally I don't like the VW or any other manufacturers smart oil servicing baloney and stick to a simple oil and filter change at 10k or yearly. On basis I do about 20-30k a year usually a lot of that in Europe it just needs planning so my friendly indy can do it for me.

Oil is relatively inexpensive. Engines aren't.
