60k service

[nervous]

anyone got any ideas how much it'll cost? it looks to be a quick inspection and an oil and filter change so im thinking/ hoping not too much.

Because you always want quickies ?

[nervous]

oh yeah. why didnt i think of that?

*goes off to have a quicky*

Is your 60K service based on year, or actually mileage ?? Just ask as I pick up my '99 C4 Cab Tip Friday, and I guess at some point in the future it will need about the same as yours, so I'd obviously be interested to know how much as well...

[nervous]

well, kinda both actually. the car was last serviced in march, so its due a 12 month service/ inspection and im currently at 57k so im guessing te service ill need is the 60k one.

theres a great indy near me that looks like he offers the minor service for 250 quid, but this seems a lot to change the oil to me. thoughts, gang?

No idea where they are, but found this as a guide...

I might be completely wrong here , but looking at the opc pricing , they do an
annual service for car driven less than 9000 miles a year (I'm assuming your last service was done on or after 48k) with a quoted price of £151! Am I reading this correctly??

[nervous]

i dunno, but ive done 9k since september so im guessing i cant have that un

[ballcock]

That won't be the one for you then m'lad... minor service (every 12k) is quoted as £331 .. (What do they do with that last pound note ??!!?)

[maxxuk]

Lucky quid on the lottery perhaps ?? ( Not that they need it - theiving toerags ).
