Bookings are starting to come in - I'm doing evenings and weekends till i leave MMC.
Thanks to all those that have booked in already!
Ed - still laughing that you didn't notice we'd washed your car! Andy was evening scrubbing the wheels on it for you, muttering about the shambles of a state you'd brought the car to me in

Enjoy it mate, and try and keep it in a straight line till your Nitrons return.

Anyone care to explain to Me, Mr Noob what the difference is between all the options? I want to service the beast every 5K miles, unsure when to go for a, when to b, etc etc...

Ali,
Prices are really competitive (especially compared to MMC) with an A service coming out 1/2 the price
If it really gets up and going you should buy a cheap S1 for a courtesy car. Remind us S2 owners about how good they really are
Cheers

If you can spend 2k on a car wash I would just get a C service done everytime - that way you can't go wrong

Isnt the B service on the Toyota's just the same as an A but with the air filter changed and therefore same price (ish) as an A? So I was reliably informed at my recent B service anyway.

Is that not a bit of overkill - servicing every 5k miles when it's due every 9k?
