Labor rates up and down the country vary massively up and down the country. It is just recently I located a LR indy garage locally near me before the only option was the main dealer which has a labor rate of £156 + VAT and they have never heard of trade discount that's for sure! Disgusting what they try get away with as well my granddad put his Jag into them and they continually just through parts at the car until it was fixed!

local indy garage is still £85 + VAT but it sure hurts less than the stealership price!

The parts supplier I mentioned was the first place I checked there WILL be cheaper somewhere on line but went with that one as pretty much all over the country. Just bear in mind when buying from them you will get a cheaper price if you click and collect rather than phone in and there is always a discount code on the home page. This discount is ALWAYS higher at the tail end of the month or around a public holiday.

Always best to get quotes from different garages. I put 2 dealerships against eachother for prices. Got £500 off the 10 year service in the end, although I've as yet to take them up on the offer 😂. I'm a southerner but I currently live in Yorkshire so I'm learning the ways of bartering 😂

Got It back from Exeter gearbox center to day all done.Very good service.
