Thats dear. My SUbaru dealer is £55 an hour. I was amazed to find a Daihatsu dealer charging £70 per hour.

VW place in Colindale were £105 per hour according to my ex.

VW £75 + VAT
Audi £85 + VAT

"Heard" that BMW Park Lane are closer to £120 + VAT, but to be fair thats understandable as it cant be cheap having a dealership in that location.

I read in a magazine, where they had an RS6 on long term. Their dealer charged around £100 p/h, dropping to £75 p/h for cars over 3 years old...
That makes sense ???????????

BMW started that, reducing the servincg rates for older cars, and as allways Audi copied them.

And yes it does take the pee, there basically saying you got lots of money so we are going to fleece you

Hi, when I had an A3 T Sport I was royally buggered over a relatively simple 40k service. But to keep the full Audi Service History I felt compelled to do so in order for resale value.
They really take advantage of this.

P.S. Get a mechanically similar SEAT Leon Cupra or Skoda Octavia vRS and their dealers servicing and labour costs are dramatically cheaper, almost half price I think.
Would help put me off getting an S3 in the future.
