Service Loan Car costs

[Bennachie]

Never had to use one before...........................

Charges?!!


Always had a 'while you wait' setup.

[Cheib]

OPC is charging you to use a loan car ?!

Mid Sussex normally charge £15 for insurance from memory plus ask that you replace any fuel used.

Had various loan cars from my OPC over the years.

Never paid a penny. Although OPC did once mention it cost them £20 per day insurance each time they loaned a car to a customer.

[Cabsi]

Service loan cars should be free!

Brooklands don't charge, just replace the fuel.

[Bennachie]

Apparently an upfront cost and a charge per mile....................

How to win friends and influence people

That's ridiculous

Fuel used is all my OPC asks. Do they give you decent cars ?

[DJMC]

Always free at OPC.

Mind you, the last one was a Merc!

Since 2008 Guildford, Reading and Brooklands have charged me for loan Porsches unless the work was for a warranty issue. About £20 for the insurance, and they ask me to leave it with the same amount of fuel it had when I picked it up.

But, I look at it as a cheap way to hire a new Porsche for the day.

When I had my Golf and my other half a Toyota the dealers both charged for insurance, about the same cost as Porsche. Not such a great deal; Yaris for £25 or 911 for £25

I owned a GT86 between Porsches a few years ago. I remember the Toyota service manager explaining to me that I could arrange my own insurance to cover the high cost of the courtesy car they were kindly offering me while mine was in for a service. This would help me avoid the £25 they HAD to charge me for being loaned such an expensive vehicle. It was a Yaris.
