  1. £216 for service plus £55 (plus vat) for 2 year brake fluid change plus £10 for courtesy car.Or something like that.
  2. Just paid £302 for my first variable service today at DM Keith York.
  3. Ordered one too.Many thanks.
  4. My 2010 vrs oil burner has the same clicky problem.I pulled the gaiter up and messed about with the clip which briefly solved the problem.Will wait for first service and get them to take a look.It is very annoying and does spoil the gear change.
  5. Collected mine from these lot a couple of weeks ago.Make sure you look under the front bumper.I didnt check til i got home and found some quite heavy scraping which looks as though it was done when the car was taken off the transporter.The road tax dates didnt add up either.No frills is an accurate phrase.Great car .As always its the dealership side of things which lets it all down.
  6. Snap.Got mine from Marlborough,isleworth though.Really overwhelmed by how good the whole package is.Lets hope theres none of that nasty snow coming to hinder the mile accumulation.
  7. Collected my new FL VRS oil burner yesterday.Mixed feelings about the dealership really.The sales staff have always been polite and pleasant but other areas have been quite poor.There have been a number of "I will ring you back" commitments not met.From ordering the car in December i was not contacted in any way (no letter of order confirmation, receipt for deposit etc) until early march when i was phoned to say the car was here.It was only at this stage that it was mentioned to me that i would have to attend the dealership to sign the finance paperwork before they would release the car (I maybe should have known this but i had mentioned when i spoke to the finance staff that i would not be coming in to collect the vehicle as i live in leeds,it would have been helpful to have been told this then).At times you got the impression the dealership were struggling to deal with the volume of business that DTD give them. I asked for mudflaps and was told both sets could be fitted.Having read stuff on here i was a bit sceptical about this but assumed they would know best.Two days before collection i was emailed to say that rears were standard? and fronts could not be fitted to this model.Needless to say there are no rears as standard. The staff yesterday were very efficient and i was in and out in no time which was a bonus.There was even 90 miles of juice in it. I thought i had given the car a reasonable check over before leaving.Upon scrambling about on the drive when i got home i have noticed some quite severe scarring /scratches under the front bumper and on the chin at the drivers side.This is my first new car and maybe im being a bit fussy, it cant be seen really but i want it perfect .Looks like the type of damage done when the cars taken off the transporter.I have emailed Marlborough with some pictures.Not sure what reaction i will get.If they surpass my expectations they will arrange for repairs to be done locally(wont put my mortgage on it)at best i think it will be a bring it back and let us have a look.If you are collecting from these any time soon do look out for this. Will keep you posted with any response. *******************************
  8. Evening all.I'm Rich from Leeds.Will hopefully be collecting a new FL vrs(oil burner) from London on Sat.If it all goes Pete Tong i might be spending the night in cardboard city.Its my first Skoda.Really impressed with the site
