A Service Time

just got a call from Murrays seems my service is due a bit earlier than I though - bad memory, at least they reminded me.

So what are the alternatives to stumping up £300+

- Dan from Jude Perfomances (are they VAT registered)
- Falkland performance

?

Though a poll may be interesting on this one!

Which service is it? IIRC My "A" service from Falklands was about £125 inc fully synthetic oil +VAT.

Good service all round.

Someone on here had a recent A at MMC and it was £380 with no consumables.

F1 in newc say theyll do it for £260, heard good things about the other two. I take it that its out of warranty.

sweet, if only I could have held on for two more minutes! Ah well I hear they have a pill for it.

Ed - it's outtta warranty, had it serviced by MMC last time, good service car came back shiny etc but £380! no thanks! Was that a Rover motor?

Not really constructive, but check out how chuffed we're getting from MMC if this lot can do it for £160!

However, I'm not sure if one of their stamps in your book counts as FLSH! If not, probably sounds like a better bet to go to Falkland (against my better judgement) given the hike involved.

It was a yota. correct me if im wrong but not sure if that makes much difference?

The_Rossatron · Post by **The_Rossatron** » Wed Mar 29, 2006 1:57 pm

In the real world no difference, but I could see it being more.

Yeah Rich it's a "A" service. Sorry My topic title don'ts reads not good.

Don't have a scooby(not the car), and couldn't see results till i voted so i went for somewhere else, so ignore my vote.

Looks FPC is the favourite so far, might give em a call.

I'll probably be going to Falkland too. Anyone know if they have any courtesy cars or not? I've been there for geo before but not for a service.

I'm guessing you didn't see the "show results" link that you can click before you vote then....

That was 380 and a rushed clean, inside not touched. MMC will not be seeing me again soon apart from warranty work

If the car came back at least like new that would be something. I actually called them at lunch to ask how the car was going 'it's on the test drive' was the reply yet I had to wait 40min while they printed the bill at 4pm and the car looked like they had just wet it

Fcuk um

I just got my B service done at Longniddry garage (as recommeded by Giles) - chap there has had a couple of Elises himself & works on quite a few. Service was good, much cheaper than MMC (there's a surprise...)

I'll go there again next time.

Where should I go for an A service?
