    #is it a major or intermediate service ? (that's why they have asked for mileage)

    For intermediate a couple of hundred quid, for a major, about 400-500 notes (plus parts of course)

    Got a price of £209 for a 96,000 mile service, One in Bristol charges £190 so this seems like the norm

    A friend of mine has offer to do it in a few weeks, he's a mechanic for Toyota and also owns a small garage - what you think? He said he could stamp my book and do all the same checks except its cash in hand and cheaper???

    Yeah he is trustworthy

    My car is telling me it needs oil so i'm in a rush to do it - i just want to make sure the correct oil goes in - apparently it needs a rather expensive one??
