As my new T350C will be needing some servicing this year, I'll probably do near on 12K miles.

What sort of service costs for 6K and 12K should I expect?

Also what sort of mileage are you all getting out of the tyres? Whats the best cost you are getting for replacement rubber?

Cheers

Tim

Rubbish Matt!

Take a look at www.tvr-power.co.uk/servicingCosts.htm

6000 mile service is £449.73 inc VAT
12000 mile service is £597.56 (plus £258.50 if tappet work required) inc VAT.

As for tyres I've done 12,500 miles and they're still looking good.

Cheers..... Andrew

My 6K service was a little over the TVR power figures in alts link at my Main dealer , and was cheaper than any of the services I had on my Chimaera...

Thanks.

£500 or thereabouts is what I was hoping! Although for this amount of fun, I'm not that bothered. Just wanted to get an idea.

Tim, to be fair to Matt's post most dealers charge a lot more than the £44 per hour plus VAT that TVR Power charge.
So it just depends on who your dealer is really?

Yep, I thought it might vary. I suppose there is more chance of a higher cost if there is a lower number of dealers in the area...

My local dealer is Christopher Neil (Northwich), anybody also had their T350 serviced there?
