| First Service cost update |
|
Guys
Having called around it pays to shop as we all know.
Costs seem to have gone up since the last thread on this subject.
Ludlow £275.05 inc valet 
Droitwich £295 inc
Hereford £267.62inc 15% off until end of December 2006 £227.48 
Solihull £390inc 
Stourbridge £355 inc  This is where we purchased it from.
Shrewsbury £324.22inc
Hinckley £314.90inc
Leicester £385inc
Coventry £360inc
Hope this helps a few people with dealers prices. Needless to say the wifes first service is due with only 4500 miles on the clock! She must try harder... 2006 TDV6 S Auto, Buckingham Blue, for the wife and kids.
2013 BMW 535d M sport touring.

I live just west of B'Ham, but used Hereford LR for first service. Freindly (opened up early for me to drop the car off, free courtesy car). Good service and cheapest.

Ripon LR...
for those who live within range, it's a no-brainer: £180 + vat for the 1st service, incl courtesy LR. This is their standard rate, not a post-haggle deal.
Does anyone know of a cheaper LR dealer? DGRR

Multimap makes it 38 miles and about an hour...

Just to let you know, Hereford LR isnt in Hereford, but approx half way from Worcester to Hereford, so I live at J3 M5, and from here it was 45mins.

Fantastic, looks like we are going for a little trip!
