Rang them for a price on my 1000 mile service (filter and oil change). When I said it was a Euro import, they got snooty and said at least £140.
Needless to say, now booked in with Quenby Bros...

I think they might have misquoted you... mine cost a few pounds (like less than half that).

An hours labour £68 + vat, and parts + vat, = £140+...

If I remember rightly my 1st service was the cost of the oil only - about £40!!

As it's a Euro import, I have to pay the labour.
All part of the IM conspiracy (must go now, can here tunnelling under my house).

Mine cost about £100 quid (@ Gouldens in Huddersfield). Seems to be about the going rate, so it sounds like they are taking the pi55. You can always take your own oil, just to spite them

I had my first service carried out by Adams of Aylesbury and mine is a Euro import MY01. Don't remember it costing that much. I'll check the invoice when I get home and post what I paid. I do remember the 12 month service being considerably more as I was informed that the labour was charged at that stage. When you call Adams, make sure you speak to a lady called Dianne (probably spelt incorrectly) as she has always been helpful to me.

!!!!

I just had mine done cost me 30 quid total - I supplied the oil and bought another filter / washer (which was 10 quid). So all in all 20 quid.

And that was a dealer not a million miles away from adams..... Cant complain.
