Yes but think of how happy the mechanic's children will be with all the toys they can buy with your money!

My Local mobile mechanic has a lap top program and uses L/R parts- A service £93 & B service £118, No problem with warranty-just had new gearbox fitted at main dealer on warranty.

just bear in mind that the dealer service includes the paintwork inspection (a quick look round) to give you the warranty on that, independant dealers don't/can't do this |

yeh but he doesn't dent the doors or the bonnet like most dealers seem to do and he also uses a L/R service checksheet- plus I can walk round the car while he's doin it and ask him to check this and that etc.

If you fancy a trip to the North East I can recommend Team Valley Land Rover, charged me #223 for a 1st service and did a good job inc an insured courtesy car & cleaned my car too. They're fully Land Rover authorised too, I'd be interested in what they charge for a 2nd service myself! |

Its the actually paintwork warranty i was refering to to not the visual inspection for dents and dings ![]() buy not having it stamped, means they may not accept a claim on rust etc Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis |

Interesting - they didn't seem too eager to match Salmons when we rang.

It could have been to keep me sweet, since i see them virtually every month and they might have know the £360 brakes pads needed doing too |

gulp ![]() They see our fl every 3-4 weeks too, due to the fact that they can't suss out the dodgy fuel guage. They're collecting it again on Tuesday to have yet another go (The mrs refuses to drive up there anymore) but sadly, at those prices they won't be doing the service. I dare say brakes will be a bit cheaper at the indie too - at least I hope so as a new set of tyres isn't very far away either ![]() |
