Default how much for a service??

need to get my car in for a 60k service. its a my99uk turbo. Been quoted £420 from my local dealer and just wondered if that seems about right. Im in NW if anyone has any suggestions, prosport maybe? Its not a cambelt service but pretty much everything else i think. cheers

No, but he is VAT registered, uses OE quality parts or better, knows his stuff much better than the 16yo trainee monkey at the dealers and will treat your car like his own new-born. On top of that you will pay much less than the dealers, and your warranty will be perfectly safe due to the removal of Block Exemption Ruling a couple of years ago.

Prosport in Stockport are very well respected on here. I believe the SMACS guys use them lots.

With regards to HDC, I had my 50k service with them which includes cam-belt and coolant (rad removed for belt fitting) and it was £206. Scoobyclinic wanted £276 and couldn't get me in for 3 weeks. I never ask for prices from dealers so I can't offer that comparison.
