    Hi, I work for a main dealer, the going rate for servicing and other service department repairs is £72/hr + vat. The going rate for bodyshop repairs is £25/hr + vat and this is around the maximum that insurance companies will accept. It makes you wonder if its worth running a bodyshop.

    The Vauxhall dealers I've used have a "set price" for a service depending on which one. A lower price can also be negotiated by playing one off with another (locally within reason) if you're lucky or classed as a loyal customer!
    Obviously if there's extra work to be done that set price is no longer valid.
    £70/hour for servicing and repairs would seem to be about right. They charged my daughter £35 for half an hours labour 12 months ago.
