Title: 2004 1.4 golf fsi - due for service.....price advice in sunderland area
Post by: funkythumbs42 on 10 December 2007, 13:11: Hi guys,

My gf's 04 1.4 golf is due for a service. What price will she typically expect to pay?

Located in Tyne & Wear particularly the Sunderland area if anyone can recommend a decent garage etc.

Regards,

Greg

Benfield Motors, Scotswood Road, Newcastle.

VW seem to be matching independent dealer prices recently just to get your business.

Post by: orca on 10 December 2007, 23:44: You could try Mill Garages on Newcastle Road, Sunderland. I've used them in the past quite a lot and found the prices reasonable. Can't help with prices for your specific car. I'd always go to a VW garage.
