60k service is approaching whats the damage going to be.
I see the plugs need changing
Sounds like it might be expensive.

Had mine done a few weeks back and it was around £600 including new front pads.

Came just at the wrong time too, same week I was moving into my new house and consequently throwing money at Ikea and B & Q. Don't think I want to see last months bank statements!!

Hi guys. HAd my Sport serviced last week by a good friend of mine. He charged me around 900 pounds cash which I think is a fair price. He also tweaked my little baby a little! Nows she goes like Thunderbird 1!!!!! Give us a shout if you want his number.
Hope this helps

Hey Popeye!

Hes a great mate of mine too, mine was due for its free 1000 mile service and he only charged me £250 - the oil is the same as used in P1's, WOWIE!! it is special oil because the molecules are all 'stuck up' and its VERY 'slippery'!!

Why, only last week, he re-filled my Rear washer bottle with special cleaner for only £3:99 - it is apparently the same as used in P1's, smells very badly of p1ss, but apparently its what the P1 owners swear by!! the dealer wants £1:20 for the normal stuff thats put in the Front washer bottle - so give him a call!!

Popeye has all his details

Its on Ashley way apparently.

It used to be a Citroen garage. The guy I spoke to was called Danny and he used to work at Intermoto in Liverpool.

Is it the Citroen garage on the roundabout near the LittleChef and Travelodge?

Or is it near what used to be C&T garage nearer the McD's?
