Jesus.

I just had new pads and discs all round on mine at Hatfield OPC. Shade over £2k, which is still £800 more than an an Indie. I let them do it as the warning came on 2 days before the service and MOT. Tyres should be say £1,500 max all round, so that leaves £6.5k for the suspension?

Perfect, these are close to me! And they only charge £80ph for labour - damn sight cheaper than the OPC's £260!

Thanks!

I live in North London and went to my local OPC for a service. Got triggered for a bill of various things, for almost £10k. I cried for a week.

Then, the week after, one spring has broken. Again, OPC has quoted quite a high bill for that too (almost £1k to fix one spring...).

Does anyone know of a good reliable garage in North London for a Macan? Am in love with my car, but I can't afford £260 per hour labour rates every month

(Driving 2015 Macan S, 60k miles on clock).
You have, I'm afraid, had your trousers pulled down and been roggered good and proper! If people are prepared to pay it - OPC's will charge it.

I’m sorry to say this, but they saw you coming a mile away. And it seems that they were correct and took full advantage.
