Service Costs L R Disco

[Val & Frank]

Went to pick up my sons disco today, it was in for a 20k mile service. I was a little stunned at the cost £464.06. When I bought my Toyota Land Cruiser I paid up front for servicing, 3 services at 10k intervals £299. Which seems like a bargain now.

An 02 Disco should not be too dificult to service.

The official dealer will use all official parts and consumables (there is no benefit in paying for oil with a Land Rover logo on the tin), have expensive showrooms, and lots of ancillary staff to charge to overheads - and if sales have not been going well, then servicing charges will make up the slack.

Get on one or two of the Land Roiver fora, and see if anybody can recommend a good independant garage in your area.

That's outrageous! I have been smarting at the costs of servicing for my BMW 530D, which I have had serviced from new by a main BMW dealer. I pay
