Hi Trevor,

 

Tha main dealers are quite expert in getting your hard earned money from your back pocket to theirs.  In 2000 I was in the Rover main dealers close to where I live and saw that the price for a full service on my Rover Sterling [2.5 V6] was £325 +VAT.  My local mobile mechanic, who  had worked there from an apprentice,did the same service for £75.

 

He has done my services ever since.

 

Peter.
