So, attracted by the nice pop up advert extolling the virtues of having my Aston serviced at an official Aston dealer, I duly filled in the form, and waited (5days) for my nearest dealer to come back to me with a quote to service my 3 year old V8VR.
The advert quotes prices from £651 (up to a maximum of £772 for a 5th year service).
My car has covered 6K miles from new, so guess what the quote was from Lancaster Sevenoaks??
"That would be £1150 sir" came the friendly reply....
I thanked them for their kind offer, and put the phone down.
Am I out of touch, or are they taking the mick???

So Aston are basing their "lead" pricing. and quoting prices for 70K miles servicing for cars that are less than 2 years old.

I wonder how many cars can possibly qualify for that??
