Sounds about £70 too much but I got stung for that sort of price also

 

yeah that was my thought, but this price was from toyotas own service website not dealer specific, so i can only assume prices have risen for all main dealers

Possibly you are limited for choice being where you are have you thought of Abbey ?

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!

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!

Price went up from £300 a couple years ago I think. £370 is the standard price

Yeah I’m reluctant to pay it as Steven eagle are a known bunch of crooks, I’m just worried about loosing main dealer history status and it’s impact on value even if it was serviced at a better place

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

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.

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

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

Closest to you then probably Abbey or Fensport, depending what side of London you are.

Going to Japex in Watford as my family have been taking 370z there for years and their reputation is fantastic
