Hi all

I have just been quoted £990 for a service on my vantage from the dealer and wondered if anyone knows any good independents round Guildford to try? I am willing to travel if necessary

Thanks!

Which service?

I've been pretty happy with Spellbound in Farnham - although for a major / 40k service I think the base price was similar (~£850+vat) I think. Minor was obviously less though.

Won't be cheaper than a main dealer. But will care more

in my experience he actually knows what he is talking about and is more thorough engineering wise, whereas it seems to me a lot of main dealers are more motivated to replace parts rather than try to repair them if they are repairable

same experience with Bamford Rose too

if that's Inc. Vat for a major service that's not awful
