Servicing
Regular servicing is essential for today’s motoring experience. All manufacturers set recommended intervals for servicing, which should be adhered to whether your vehicle is still under warranty or not. Regular servicing not only maintains your vehicle’s efficiency but also keeps you safer and legal on the road.
We understand that fully financing maintenance schedules can be challenging, but ignoring regular checks is not beneficial in the long run. That’s why we offer services that cater to all your needs, from full manufacturer schedules to minimal safety and level checks.
Don’t be misled by servicing costs. While main dealer services may sound expensive—often quoted between £200 – £800 depending on make and model—you receive full dealership backup, large showrooms, and sumptuous waiting rooms, all demanded by the franchiser. These benefits come at a price.
On the other end, some service centres quote as low as £39.95 for a ‘service.’ Given the cost of quality parts and oils, such pricing often necessitates additional work to cover expenses.
We prefer to charge a fair and reasonable rate per service, only advising on truly necessary work. Over the years, our returning customers have proven the value of this approach. Please phone for a tailored service quote for your vehicle.
For example, a typical service on a 2005 Ford Focus 1.6 petrol-engined vehicle is £120. This service is carried out by a qualified, experienced technician using quality parts and oil (including spark plugs, air filter, oil filter, and 5w/30 semi-synthetic oil).
If you’re on a budget, for around £40, we can perform an oil and filter change (the lifeblood of your engine) plus a safety and levels inspection. This option covers the basics of a service while allowing you to know the condition of your vehicle.
