👍 Yeah, pass on the aircon, dependent on where you are in the Cotswolds, Tewkesbury or Swindon will give you the same service and price.

Thanks chaps and yes they quoted £525 which is the fixed price quoted on Porsche website. Worth shopping around!

Portsmouth quoted me £430 for my upcoming service vs £490 from Reading, my usual OPC. Only the additional distance and inconvenience allows me to justify the extra £60, but it's definately worth shopping around.

On the other hand, it would be interesting, if asked, how Reading justify charging the £60 extra, above the fixed price servicing cost...! :?

(Yes, I know not all OPCs are signed up to fixed price servicing, but still...) :ugeek:

Hatfield OPC make it up as they go along, and they're owned by Porsche UK.

My 20k was £740 and my 40k was £1,100. Go figure.
