Had my 8p back from Audi yesterday after I dropped it off Friday for a headlamp fault, had to agree to an initial diagnosis at £120, fault not found so was asked to agree for a further 4 hours at £120 to remove the front bumper and lamp unit, so already in for £600, fault found and a further £700 in parts including the vat, didn’t expect a bill for £1300 to be honest....pfft

You need to be finding a decent indie - no point taking an 8P to the main dealer. I am still thinking about taking my FL to an indie rather than putting up with the dealer bs.

Sounds about right that cost as like all dealerships they have Hugh overheads to pay for.

Bloody extortionate that amount mind you

Need any assistance in the future, give us a shout we are only in Tamworth and carry out all jobs. 

 

Health checks only £45+vat not £110+vat
