Discounted servicing at OPC

[chrisABP]

So my 718 Spyder is due its 4 year service and I've been checking the price at OPC and all in its around £2k with plugs, brake fluid, belt check etc.
I've seen that Dick Lovett group (Swindon, Bristol, Tewkesbury etc) are offering a healthy -26% discount on all servicing work from 1st January through to the 31st March 2026 provided you are a member of PCGB (annual membership cost is £85 so to save in the region of £500 its a no-brainer).
My question is has anyone managed to get similar discounts at any OPC's closer to the North West? I'll happily drive the 95 miles to save 26% but it would be good if I can get similar closer to home.
Any success with Chester? Wilmslow? Stockport? Wolverhampton?

Thanks in advance, Chris

Chris,
Wolverhampton were offering 10% to club members earlier in the year. I think the Dick Lovett offer was to match that from Portsmouth and Bournemouth, but they would be the wrong location for you!

A pig just flew past my window. Stop press. Two of them!

A trader I know gets i think 40% off labour so it is possible !

Nothing in the NW offer that kind of discount. OPC Preston and Bolton offer 10% discount with PCGB membership. The 4 year service on my GTS 4.0 will be £1870 in March.

I got the 26% off, think it’s matching Bournemouth / Portsmouth who are doing the same.

Is the standard retail price (pre-discounted) of a service the same for all the franchises? I.e. are you sure 25% off services at Group1 or Lovetts is a better deal than 10% off at Bowker?

It’s roughly standard across the dealers, so 25 or 26% off the full service is a lot better than 10% off the parts imho.

I think Porsche Bournemouth and Portsmouth are an exception. Not sure how they manage to give 25% discount on servicing but there isn't another dealer, especially in the NW, that will offer that kind of discount.

If anyone knows of another dealer that offers that kind of discount please let us know.

Lind that run Tonbridge and Norwich also do it I believe.
