- 2002 E class 2.2 cdi auto estate, Lexus GS 450h
Just had car (JAN 2003 W210 CDI AUTO ESTATE ) serviced by official M.B. dealer in Velez Malaga as follows;
Routine service (86,000 miles)
Replaced Brake Light Switch
Replace antifreeze
Replace front wiper blade
Replace Serpentine Belt (1st change)
Total cost -377 euros,approx £265.
Labour was 118 euros,approx £85,parts inc oil came to 207 euros,approx £145 and Spanish taxes 52 euros,approx £35
No shiny showroom or salesmen all over the place,or smart dolly birds,or car wash,just one honest pleasant no nonsense male receptionist who does everything and who knows what he`s talking about (Jose Maria ).Told me to come back in 3 hours,so I did and the car was ready.
A lesson there somewhere?
Regards
John
