60k service costs-interest some of the higher mileage gang

[darrenjuggins]

Hi All,

Just pick up my now clean MR2 from Lister Toyota in Lincoln.  Courtest Car supplied FOC (Yaris requested due to Zurich only insuring car's upto 1.7!)

Total cost............ £113.08 Plus Castrol RS Oil £30 (depending on when purchased!)

I was amazed at this great deal, I had been quoted £170 for this service, so was very happy!

This has got to be one of the cheapest sports cars to own, period!


Car was ready for early this afternoon, so popped out to deliver some stuff for work, picking her up along the way to take her for a blast.

Well done Listers Toyota of Lincoln - which has the new modern service / purchase area, with coffee, PS2 and internet.

Anyway - praise over, hope some of you can use this as a comparison for your future services.

Cheers

From a Toyota dealer? That's very good. Does it include the valve adjustment and brake fluid?

I was quoted £350 from Toyot so used an independent (Millway) which cost £170ish.

It included whatever was needed:

All checks where done - £78

PLus Air filter, oil filter and sunderies.

£113.00


I paid for the oil Castrol RS.

If it didn't need doing I guess they didn't do it, plus I had the best Technician on mine (workshop forman no less) think they must like me in the dealership.

BTW: Best comment I had off someone the other day was they thought my car was less than a year old, they nearly fell over when I said it was 60,000 miles and 4 years old now !!! tee, hee!!!
