MX5 ND Service cost

[Nick67]

Can someone please recommend a good please to have my car serviced Sussex/Kent area

The dealers seemed to charge a fortune so wondered if anyone knows of one doing a decent deal as I assume I need to use one for warranty purposes

Can't advise you on a local dealer, but you would need them to use Mazda's own parts to maintain your warranty.

I used Hendy Mazda in Tunbridge Wells, pretty good service from the people at the service desk, but getting through to them on the phone is a test of your patience, price didn't seem too bad at the time.

Thanks for the replies.

The garage that we've used for a number of years have quote £180 inc using OEM parts vs £300+ from Mazda

If the garage you have used for years is one you trust, I'd go with them, if you would prefer to keep a main dealer history maybe try negotiating with Mazda for a better price, if they are quoting £300 I'm assuming that's for a brake fluid change as well as service?

Yes it includes the brake fluid, have negotiated the price down to £225, so will use the main dealer just in case we decide to sell
