As above.
GF's Corsa C (1.2 Energy) is due in for a service, how much can we expect to pay at Vauxhall?
Cheers,
Phil.

I paid £150 for the yearly service at my local vauxhall, not even sure they replaced all the stuff according to the manual either

Will give them a ring tomorrow, friends Uncle works there as a manager so he's going to get a rough price for me tonight.
We're looking to PX it for a Focus, just think having a service will give peace of mind

Arnold Clark are doing £69 services atm, if you go to a vaux one that gets you a vaux stamp.

It probably won't be that much. But they will just change the oil and filter and not alot else. May aswell just go to an independant and get a proper job done.

Yeah does it still have warranty? If not it's really not worth it. And if you do, ask for your old parts back as a guarantee that they have actually serviced it and don't let them road test it.

Its not really worth it even if it is in warranty imo. Unless its something fancy where people feel reassured by the stamp. On a Vauxhall or any sort, I don't think it is worth it.

Do it yourself. Service kit is £20 delivered. That includes air filter, oil filter and 4 plugs.
£30 for a cam belt if you fancy doing it. £15 for a water pump if you fancy it.
Few hours tinkering in the garage and life's good!

Warranty is still intact if you use a decent garage who use genuine Vauxhall parts.
Full service, oil, oil filter, air filter, pollen filter, fuel filter, spark plugs etc.. from an independent would be about £100
