£399 for a 40'000 mile service down here from VW!
They must have Donald Trump test drive it!

Had a longlife service at 14k, the car is now on 25k and it's flashing for another service? is that right? or have the garage just not set the service indicator properly?

Cheers

I just paid £187 for first long life service. It might help to get them to price match. :wink:

THey do, when I phoned up another deal to ask how much for the service they said they would knock off 10% to £300 but mine was alreaady booked in at the other dealer for warrenty work so there wasnt much point. Fight them off againt each other and bring that price down :)

That is a scandalous price to pay... and I would be kicking up a fuss!! With the additional cost of super unleaded and less use out of your front tyres, Im starting to think the R32 is the cheaper of the golfs to run  :rolleyes::grin:
