i paid about £20.00 for all my parts then got a good deal on a service from a local indipendant vx service centre, so took it all back

£20? Jesus, was that trade club?

£20....... Cost me £40 for the oil alone! Changed my oil, oil filter and air filter this weekend, plus took that plastic bit out of the air box.

You must have good independant friends..

i had a goooood friend at vx for the parts, minus the oil, that was going to be free from another mate in the trade, but i found a local indipendant vx centre who did the service inc all genuine parts for £109.00 book stamped check straps greased and also pointed some bits out that needed doing under warranty.....i was well pleased

That's like seeing comets passing overhead. One in a million dealer you have there. They all charge a bloomin fortune here (hence why i did my own) and then they forget to put bits back on the car

Keep hold of him

Cheers! I do my own so I know its been done properly. All the boxes ticked on the service sheet, every bolt at the right torque...

Way too many cowboys to be trusting your asset with!
