That's me done almost 10k in the past year since I bought the old bus. Nothing has gone wrong with the car in that time and it has returned 28mpg. I could not ask for anymore from a V6 and much credit is due to the 5 speed box, which I now leave in "W" (I like the smooth 2nd gear take off's) as the economy is much improved returning an extra 3/4mpg on average.
So the computer is saying service in 1,800 miles. But it's a year since purchase and the MoT is due next week.
So I contacted my local MB agent. Charge for an A service is £280 inc vat and parts. MoT £50.
Any discount on that?
Yes. £250 all in for the service.
Can I have a courtesy car?
Yes on your own F/C insurance.
What can I say? They twisted my arm...
