Roughly £722 + vat for oil change & brake fluid change.
OPC Wilmslow & Cheshire Oaks..

I think the OPCs are taking the Michael for the "drain cleaning".
The OEM parts and recommended lubricants for that service will be about £150 tops. I simply couldn't bring myself to pay nearly £600 +VAT for what is 1-1.5 hours labour!

Still if everybody was like me and refused to pay their rip off prices, I would not have anywhere to take my car for the free warranty work.

I don't know how they can keep a straight face when they quote these outrageous prices! Sorry, but anyone who pays that has completely lost touch with financial reality. If I had that sort of money to burn, I'd sooner give it to charity.

Obscene.

They need to make back the money they lost on AndyC160’s oil change! ;) :P :lol:
Haha 😄

Benefits of being able to hack into their computer systems!

Next project: Hack in again and order yourself the next available GT car! ;) :P

That amount does seem alot...what did they actually quote for?
The usual first service - Oil, filter, brake fluid...... The difference in prices are just ridiculous!

That's crazy!

Maybe there are some positives about owning a base rather than an S!

@AndyH - My Gen 3 S was serviced yesterday and the cost of the first service came in at £734 all in, which I think is reasonable.

Cheers

I just paid £400 for a first oil change (18 months, 7,500 miles) at Glasgow for my Gen3 GTS.

Re roof drains - my previous Gen2 S started suffering badly from condensation until I realised that the carpets were also soaking. Booked into Glasgow for investigation where they had to strip full interior to be cleaned and dried. Took nearly a week and was carried out under warranty.

I popped into Porsche Hatfield on Saturday mainly as I was bored and in the area, but I asked for a quote for my first service.

£1217.85

I did not have it itemised, so I don't know what other 'extras' there are in that quote, but rest assured I'll be hunting around for a better price than that!

First service should be oil change, £3-400.
