Question

As you can now offer petrol stations a price to beat on-line, I thought why not give it a try regarding car service.

Area - Midlands

Best Price quoted 30.000 mile service £350

If you can beat this price by 10% please e-mail me at Alde@aldeuk.force9.co.uk

You will have my business.

Best Regards

Leigh

Try VEHICLE BUYERS JAPAN they based in Newbury JCT 13 M4, they have a very good service department, tell them how much you have been quoted and I am sure they will beat it.

They do all my work and I have not had any problems.

Thumbs up

I'll second Roger Clarks, I definatley paid less than that for more than just a 30k service from them.

So do you guys not worry that that if you start bartering the dealers down, that you might get a low price, but that also you might only get half a service???

i`ve got my Terzo booked in at my local dealers for a weeek on Friday, which is costing me £417 for the 30k service.

Oh, i rang another place, that lost their franchise 6 mths ago, and they quoted £340, plus, they said that if i got it cheaper, then ring them back again.

Sod it, i`m going to keep it with a Subaru F.S.H., i`ve heard these guys are good, so that`ll do for me

Leigh,

You should have spoken to Dave the other day when you were in Risboro. I've spoken to him and I'll e-mail you off line with his price.

I would like to thank both the companies that responded off line. And the advice from scoobynet members. I would advise you all to do the same. These companies are keen to get your business and have the initiative to what this space. I am sure they will do a good job on my UK car.
