| Three Year Service Plan Cost |
|
Hi everyone. Just considering the option of a three-year plan and after some gentle negotiation with the first dealer it came down from £1378.00 to £1176.00, which still strikes me as a lot of money, when my wife's Golf is £299 and my last touareg was £499 for the same three-year servicing. What's a fair price? I'd appreciate your experiences and suggestions on whether individual servicing or a service plan is the best option. Cheers steve  All that I Pay my Psychiatrist is the price of Feed and Hay.....and he listens to me All Day

I'd say it sounds a good deal, but DEPENDING on your mileage and how much faith you have in the dealership. Thus far I have had 2 services this year which have cost more than £1,000 between them - and nothing special either, Currently 2009 Disco 3 SE, 2013 MY D4 HSE and 2016 D4 SE
Previously:
TD5 Defender 110 CSW (230k miles)
300TDi Disco 1 (289k)
4 RR Classics (300-350k each, 2 manual, 2 auto)
110 V8 CSW (220k)
S3 109 hi cap pickup (ex RN)
S2A 88 Safari SW with lpg conversion (bloody lethal)

Think wiggs got his good deal taking out the plan when he purchesed the car.
I couldn't get near what he got when I tried to negotiate on a 2 year old car.
The average price for a service is £500 so 1200 for 3 is a pretty good deal Cheers Ian
