The Jaguar F-Pace service interval is 21 months - should I have any work done at 12 months anyway?

The Jaguar F-Pace service interval is 21 months. Mine is now 12 months old and has done 7000 miles. Should I have anything done now, like an oil change, or is it okay to wait the 21 months?
That is a ridiculously stupid service interval and if this is a 2.0-litre Ingenium diesel, owners are finding out that the DPF regeneration system contaminates the oil severely by 10,000 miles, to the extent that JLR is actually paying for 10,000 miles oil and filter changes.
