3 year car service/MOT
Comments
-
I think they're offering me a bum deal too! I've phoned round some other Ford owners I know, and no one paid over £200 for their 3 year service and MOT!! I'm now quite sure they're trying to sell me something I don't need! Will phone them up and tell them that I want the original service they quoted (£175 for service and MOT).
Thanks for the help everyone.
Edit: Well I phoned them, and apparently the £300 service/MOT is to keep my car within its warranty. This would be the 3 year warranty that ends 31st October 2008... so basically they were trying to get me to pay another £125 for a whole 3 week warranty. Pah!Should've = Should HAVE (not 'of')
Would've = Would HAVE (not 'of')
No, I am not perfect, but yes I do judge people on their use of basic English language. If you didn't know the above, then learn it! (If English is your second language, then you are forgiven!)0 -
Shop around. If you're in Durham (I think you said you were) there is a Nationwide AutoCentre at the Arnison Centre. Smaller independants might be worth asking aswell. MOTs you could either go with the likes of Nationwide offering half price MOTs or send it to a council MOT centre, they don't do work on the cars so won't be looking for work to bump the price up.One day I might be more organised...........

GC: £200
