Lol! Just realised that's April fools day!
What did you expect you have bought a performance sports car, and you aren't taking it to Kwik fit.

I paid £275.00 at Brayley Honda, Hemel Hempstead, in October 2011 for that service, although I provided the oil.

In my first post I did say that I'd pay it if it was correct. I haven't come on here complaining about it, so I don't know why you've said the above?

Thanks for the replies all, it sounds like it's about right, and of course I knew that a dealer will charge a bit more.

Find a specialist - TGM did mine for £300 ish all in last year. I'd much rather use a specialist than a generic dealer.

I ended up doing this. It's booked in with TGM for £340. My parents are local so it works quite well for me.

Haha, as above, why didn't you ask?

They told me it was oil, oil filter, air filter, cabin filter, dif oil, gearbox oil, brake fluid, spark plugs and valve clearance check/adjustment.

I didn't ask as I'm not going for a full service I've asked for certain things to be done as I've had valve clearances done last year, I've had diff and gearbox oil done recently and a brake fluid change the other week.

So I knew my service would be pretty cheap but I've also gone there for other jobs to be done like an exhaust mod and a few other niggles so couldn't really ask for a price for everything.
