    Why are you going to a Ford dealer for your service?  Do you have money to waste?  Go to your local independent garage and save yourself thousands over the lifetime of your car.  I bought a new car from a Ford dealer in 2015... told them it would never pass their (or any Ford dealers) doors again - result!  No annoying emails/offers/carp etc etc.

    Hi, I wondered how much was the 'start from' cost to have your car MOT and serviced at the same time/day ? I want to confirm if it is any cheaper doing it all in one go, than doing them separetly. I recently had my service only done which roughly cost £370. It was £210 for just the sevice alone, and £160 for the other bits they had to do to my car. Would I be saving any money booking them in at the same time?
    Thanks!
    What are you getting serviced for 370 quid?
    The service was £210 which, from Ford, is pretty much kick the tyres and change the oil and filter.

    I paid less for my service from a main stealer, and that doesnt account for the extra 180 quid.

    That's the price mine charges for a major service.

    Ford list price is £225 for a minor service and £305 for a major service on the normal 1yr / 3 yr cycle.  A Motorcraft service is £159.

    It depends entirely on the particular garage and what deals they're doing.
    Bear in mind that if you do them together you're saving yourself a lot of time and hassle.
    Ever since I started driving I do that, Makes it so much easier, One thing I couldn't believe was one Kia garge said no it cant be done like that, I'm sure they were out to take your money and rip you off.
