Question

Now I know this post's title is a bit of an oxymoron, but what should I be expecting to pay for a 15000 (or in my case a 12month) service?

How much should I expect to have to pay to have the 1st year body service done at the same time, & is this worth getting it done?

Anyone have any recommendations of where to get a service in the SYorks/Derbs/Notts/Lincs area?

I paid £270 at Beechdale in Nottingham. That includes the body service which is about £100 I think. Beechdale seem to cover a lot more than some other dealers (from what other people have pointed out). Lots of underseal underneath the car, and plenty of wax in the engine department

Personally I think they give excellent service (only one Justy as a courtesy car in three visits ) and are happy to help with niggles that you may have.

For a non-dealer service, can recommend TSL in Keyworth (east side of Nottingham). Blokes there know there stuff inside out and Lesley makes a mean cuppa

I still take mine to main dealer to get the ol' stamp in the book, but TSL get all my other work.

had the 15000 today, in Devon they told me it was about 100 if the brakes were ok, we will see?. Last time i was there also asked about the underseal, was told 65 but that not many had it done and it didnt effect resale. All sounds very cheap i seem to remember a post from some guy paying about 400 including seal WOW. As i left the parts guy said it was prob between 60 - 80 for the srvice as it will come in the post, that would be nice but not holding my breath, ill let you know soon
