Dear all,

Looking for ways to make running the beast a bit more affordable

What should I be paying for STi II servicing in the Swindon (South West) area, and by who?

Any other suggestions for how to keep running costs down?

ummmmmmmmm dont buy a scoob????

 

Hi Ian,

Just to help you, I've had a quote to do the 60,000 mile service on my STI I for just under £500, including the cambelt change. I asked them to use Mobil One, instead of Motune oil, and a K&N panel filter.

First quote I've had, so I'm looking to get some more for comparison, and this wasn't a Scooby dealer. Also, I'm up north, so I don't know what the service costs elsewhere are like......

Hi Ian,

I always take my STi IV to David Hendry in Malmesbury and couldn't recommend them more - just had the 45k cambelt service done for £323.

You can find details of them at

 

I used to use Hendry for my TVR / modded scooby, and was royally stitched up / ripped off several times (had no other local TVR dealer to change to and subaru garage didn't want to touch the scooby)
I personally would never go there again.
Maybe I was unlucky.....?
