Chiark,
I've found FR Pulleyn at York very good and cheap as well.
My last 7500 service was less than £80
They are also more than happy to service Euro Imports.
Cheers,
Ian.

oh well looks like its in the region...
they stung me £20 plus vat for collection and return. They will of course be taking that back as they have never charged me for this in the past.
I guess at the end of the day it depends how far you're prepared to travel to get a cheaper service.
Thanks for the feedback anyway.

Ok so I've just been invoiced £472 for my 30,000 2 year service.
Includes spark plug change etc etc.
Is this about right or have I been well and truly stung?
Quick advice please before I rant at them for extorsion.

£381.42 fixed price at Nobles in Edinburgh.
I'm due for mine as well, and was considering having it done by a local Impreza specialist. Subaru trained guys, all original parts (or better, such as option for K&N panel filter) and only £250 for SIDC members.
Just not quite sure about the warranty.

K T Green - Leeds - 30,000 Mile service:
UK Turbo MY99:
My car 24/01/01 £369.57 (Supplied my own oil)
Girfriends car 31/05/01 £331.86 (Supplied own spark plugs but not oil).
Both include VAT - I get 10% discount on parts.
I have always had good service from K T Greens even though neither car was supplied by them.

Had my 30K done about 2 weeks ago:
£330 all in from John Wilding in Kendal.
(and they changed my rear discs under warranty without question).
Would recommend them to anyone.
