ok, well i got the price on servicing before wrong, just booked mine in for a service in bridgend (bvs) and all booked in for £140 something, they told me the max service cost would be £191, i'm not quite sure what that means mind

i'm sure last time they told me £188

under £150 seems alright ish to me, i assume they do the air con and everything else that i'm guessing smaller garages wouldn't do...at least i'm hoping

I'd imagine all they'd do on the air con is to make sure it works. If you're reffering to an air-con re-charge, then that'd be extra

i forgot to reply to this thread!

it came to £175, there was a couple of extra things they changed, some bulbs, and i've forgotten the rest, had additional diagnostics done on the alternator as the battery light is staying on (dam getting old one reconditioned!) told me its charging slightly under so its triggering an error

have since been to buy a replacement bulb and they just said no worries and had a guy come out and change it for free, which i thought was pretty decent.

I have personally dealt with Jeremy and Steve at cardiff vovlo centre for a number of years, in fact since they first started.

I can honestly say that they are the 2 most honest and helpful people in the motor trade that i have ever met, (next door to myself).

Whilst working at nort west trading in wigan i sent a lot of products to the lads and used to reccomend many customers to them. I never once herd a single complaint.

Hope this helps anyone who doesnt want to be ripped off for unneccesary work or rediculous prices.

Keith
