Kwik-Fit online quote for any TVR service and MOT - £199.99.
Sadly doesn't include tappet adjustment.
Someone needs to take these muppets up on this but I think I'll wait until my Sp6 is over 15 years old!

Love to see there faces when I insist on the correct plugs and oil.

The specifics on oil are Service prices include a choice of semi-synthetic or Zetec oil when you book online.
If you wish to upgrade your oil to Mobil 1 this can be done at the time of your appointment. A £10 charge will be made for this upgrade.
Vehicle exclusions may apply
Almost tempted to try ringing the number to check for exclusions, if the marque ain't on the list, it will soon be!!!
Reminds me of changing the battery on a Tusc at a national chain of garages (not kwick fit!) where 2 hours later, they did finally get it fitted and said that in future, they were only going to "supply only".....well you live and learn!! Lol

Frankly I wouldn't trust the Saturday Kid at Kwik Fit to service a lawnmower. The service schedule will be very short and is unlikely to be any different to doing the basics yourself. It's cheap if they do a Dealership full service (which I think is so extortionately expensive its almost criminal), but they won't.
My local Kwik fit earned a letter or appreciation from me when I took a previous car to them for work required. I used them exclusively in the end for 4 years, until I moved out of the area.
At one point they wouldn't change a clutch for me because it was a 4x4 and too complex and I became terribly sorry soonafter. I took it to a Lex servicing agent who ended up fitting the wrong clutch and broke my ABS sensors.
Kwik Fit quote prices up front instead of waiting until they've done the job. This is a process we have to apply in IT projects, without which we'd not get many of the repeat work we seek.
The Cerbera is hardly a complex car. There are components that are awkward to get at but oil is oil. An oil service could be performed by anyone. Tappets are a little more complex but hardly any more so than any other car, once you know what the gaps are.

And you would trust Kwikshit to carry out these tasks for youAt one point they wouldn't change a clutch for me because it was a 4x4 and too complex and I became terribly sorry soonafter. I took it to a Lex servicing agent who ended up fitting the wrong clutch and broke my ABS sensors.
