PCP states that has to be main dealer services i believe, also it needs to be done by friday to be within the annual cycle, thirdly i cant deal with long journeys around my day job (hertfordshire based) so im out of options it seems!

infernouk 8 Report post Posted June 11, 2018 To add, Japex in Watford have quoted me £250 for the service and my mums 370z has been going there for 6 years. I’m just concerned about loosing the main dealer history as it’s impact / fines from the finance company! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think you're being too kind🤑 That’s what I mean, I’d rather buy a car with specialist servicing that Steven eagell which is why I think it may be the smart move as this is an enthusiast car not a yaris so buyers may be More understanding Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KevinA 695 Report post Posted June 11, 2018 I'm sticking with main dealer RRG Mac even though I am out of warranty, but understand your concerns totally. Bit of a lottery with some Toyota dealers. 1 Kal reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bit of a lottery with some Toyota dealers. Yeah Mac are well known for quality work, where as Steve eagell are known for the opposite, even damaging users cars. So I think I’m going to have to go private as I can’t deal with long drives just for servicing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
infernouk 8 Report post Posted June 11, 2018 Spoke with Toyota and they said it only matters that oils and parts are genuine Toyota for warranty purposes and other than that it doesn’t matter where it’s done! So no main dealers for me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
