£420 for a minor service?

[edo]

1st service on the cayenne due - 2 years (only done 15k). £420?! (plus brake fluid).

Dont want to go out the network, any likleihood of getting this down?

What do they do for that - just an oil change?

Thanks folks.

No plan to go anywhere but OPC on a sub 2 year old car in warranty. Have asked Guilford and Mid Sussex to beat and also trying to borrow a Macan for the weekend to sweeten the deal

Also try Silverstone they came out with the best quote for me.

Good shout, I did just buy a £60k Cayman from them, so worth a go!

Hang on a minute. You're driving very expensive premium vehicle, it only needs servicing every 2 years, yet you want to get it done for buttons? If it is only seeing the a technician once every 2 years, you should expect they'll go over it with a fine tooth comb and inspect EVERYTHING, as it will be another 2 years before they see it again. At worst you'd expect them to check the safety stuff. This doesn't take minutes, and @£400 sounds like a bargain to me. Not sure what the OP's beef is? Don't buy a Porsche if you don't want to pay to look after it properly.

Get off your high horse. The old 'you have a expensive car you can afford it line' is rather moronic.

I don't want it done for buttons but at the same time 570 for oil, brake fluid and a check over is steep.

Anyhow thanks for your constructive input. The guys and girls at Silverstone are looking after me.

No plan to get into a debate with people on this.

Just a note to say thanks to Silverstone for a great service as always, although you'd think they could afford to fix the leaking roof
