I’ve been sent a voucher for oil change service at MD Leeds for £550 instead of their usual price of £770. I can post onto anyone that can use it as my vantage comes with free servicing

Is there a time limit for this? My V8V having it's annual service in June, probably going to use Leeds mains dealer (unless anyone can tell me otherwise). Would be keen to reduce the cost a bit!

Thanks,
David

I'm going to Leeds for my Vantage service on Tuesday next week (13/4/21), would appreciate the voucher, and happy to split the savings with you if they accept the voucher

Just by supplying the oil yourself it will be cheaper still

Buy it off Amazon and as AM to use it during the service - Saves about £250 on my V12 service each time

Does the dealer allow this? Which dealer?

Always thought they would get sniffy about this but noted for future.

As an aside whilst on the topic of Leeds Aston, has anyone found any reputable indies anywhere near to Leeds? Usually used trusted indies in the past on my cars but for some reason we don't seem to have any that specialise in Aston anywhere remotely near.

AML Performance Macclesfield. Will be a great drive over and you can top up with Esso Synergy Supreme in Buxton on the way back.

NP

Also worth noting, its worth asking for a full price break down on parts for service work. I saved £180 on the spark plugs at my last plug change - Wasn't happy with what they where asking per plug, it was well over twice the online price from the usual scum bags. While I am happy for dealers to make a profit, I am not for them to take advantage.

Again it never pays to haggle
