Recomendation on garages near Coventry

mantaray · Jul 27th, 2018, 14:09

My 18,000 mile, 14 plate V40 is due for its 4th service, the local dealer is quoting £260, is this about right, or can anyone recommend an independent dealer that may be cheaper?

Don't mind travelling a bit if the service and price is right.

I normally do all my own servicing but need an official stamp to keep the warranty.

Thanks for any help.

Dave Pengally is an Independant Volvo in Nottingham and about 45 mins door-to-door for me from Nottingham to Coventry.

Worth phoning for a quiote to get a price at least.

C.P. Motors at Polesworth nr Tamworth are very good.

I’d get a quote from these garages and then work out the cost of fuel going to and from Nottingham or Tamworth. I use Tollbar in L/Spa because they’re local plus any software upgrades on your motor will be done as part of the service. Just a thought
