servicing costs

[wantalotus]

just read on a thread that A service for 111R is circa £320..........can this be true? For an oil and filter change it seems a bit steep. Anyone know of specialists in the Stoke on Trent area that could do the R without voiding warrenty?

[bogie]

usually about £150-£180 at a specialist, then £250 for a B and £550 for a C....double those for a dealer

That may have been me mentioning it in passing on the other thread. My 111r went into the main dealer on Thursday for it's first scheduled A service (9000mi), which cost the princely sum of £327.37.

Thats for the standard A service - oil filter, sump plug, oil, brake cleaner and screenwash - £76.66 plus VAT for the bits. The rest is labour, the rates for which were recently increased (as in last week). Bastards!

At least they valeted it

Anyone know of any specialists in the Leeds/York area. Car out of warranty now and don't fancy being placed over a barrel for the impending B service and not likely to be near Sinclares in the next couple of months

it does seem a tad expencive. Dick Turpin would be a suitable name for a dealership. would a specialist void any remaining warranty? Anybody know any local to Stoke on Trent?

Looking for servicing, do a search on here for www.judeperformance.co.uk for references, based near Newcastle, keen prices & not too far from Leeds/York.

Anybody know of any specialists in the Birmingham area? Or are Nick Whales prices reasonable?

I need a B service for my S2 only got 8k on the clock.

I know it won't be a lot of use to you guys 'oop north' of London but I've discovered a Lotus approved garage which just deals with servicing and repairs (just fixed my rear calm superbly after a prang) and an 'A' service costs just £100!!

Fibreglass Services are in Yapton near Chichester, West Sussex.

My first service at my dealership last October cost over £300 - outrageous I thought - needless to say they won't be seeing me again!!

Miles and Ian at FS are great aren't they!? Top notch in all respects.

I thought the A,B,C service was dropped (for 111R & Exige anyway)???

Just 'regular' services every 9000 miles or 12 months.

Anyone know what the typical price for a regular service is?
