A years warranty on parts and workmanship, a cup of coffee, a courtesy car, good service etc. There is so much to fall back on if it goes wrong and i think the piece of mind with that is well worth the fact my car will be looked after by specialist.

if you don't get this feeling from your main dealer, definatly need to find another one to use as these is the only reasons its worth the money.

On the other hand, i had 4 tyres fitted at a back street garage, a simple job, they left 75psi in my left rear tyre! one on 36, others on 32 or something, imagine that sort of skill level changing you box oil lol

I use waterhouse chelmsford, essex. Have only just bought my v60, d4 r design, but the service i got the other day was great and well explained to me.

I am booking in next month for the gearbox oil change as due course as my car is on 75k. Ill let you know if it feels any different after!
I don’t think you will be thrilled! But I doubt you will be disappointed....
