not too unsual - cheapest quote for my model '02 WRX (due for 30k tomorrow) was £425 - pays to shop around though as prices varied by up to £50.

Unhappy

Parts - Oil, filter, coolant, air filter, plugs, gearbox and final drive oils. The parts bill doesn't seem so bad now? Tip - supply your own oils and maybe plugs!

mwp - thanks for that, made my day my 03STi 30000 service is just around the corner and was expecting prices in that range.

Something to be grateful for - at least the thread isn't titled £30k service bill on 03 STi

Welcome to the cost of subaru ownership
