Does anyone know a good independent servicing centre. The local Skoda main dealer want £253 for an intermediate service and MOT. Kwik Fit look to be charging £139 for the same. Any ideas?

I wouldn't go to kwik fit, and if you're going to be paying main dealer prices I'd try breeze VW up by tower park rather than trust a certain dealer with the car.

Friend of mine used this lot for an old golf:

APD-VAG Location

Have also heard reasonable comments about:

Regan Motor Co, Volkswagen, Audi and SEAT Specialists, About Us

I can't make any recommendations though as I have used neither myself.

If your still looking my mechanic is brilliant. He is an Ex BMW mechanic who set up on his own years ago He specialises in BMw and VAG but will service/repair anything except a citroen ( no he wont touch them under any circumstances ( not even for his brother)). Very well equiped workshop and honest guy ( no im not on commission) He is based in Wimborne though.

If your still interested reply and ill give you his details.

I would be interested in his contact details, if you wouldn’t mind passing them on to me, as I may be having some more bits bolted on to my Octy soon.

The main stealer verbally quoted a silly high price to fit something I’ve been thinking about!
