My first service is due on my 1.4 petrol DAB and I was just wondering what other people have paid to have this done?

Thanks.

Think the board in Uddingston Seat said around 80-90 for first service, and i think ~120-140 for 2nd service.

You could phone them and ask them the rough price, they have a board with all models + prices on it (closest SEAT dealer if your in Edinburgh like myself - its about 30 mins along the motorway and turn left as you get to Showcase cinema, then down the road, turn right at the roundabout, first left, then first right.)

well not quite directions after mutlimapping it, it feels like that though ( http://www.multimap.com/maps/?hloc=GB|G71%206BS )

Number is 01698 817137

Think your other option is Arnold Clarke, but i think you would want it done properly.

Alas i bought my car just after it's first service so i can't tell you the price i'm afraid.

Well the DAB has the FR 16" alloys, FR Seats, 100bhp engine instead of the 85, and the leather steering wheel / sport gearknob etc.

It's a cross between the FR + Sport pretty much, but with a smaller engine than the FR

and the seats in the formula sport are nicer.. lol

I'd say opposite to be honest, the formula sport ones have that horrendous criss cross red pattern, where as the DAB are just plain, or atleast mine is (+ they are comphier)

Although there is 2 versions of each one, so there could be the same in the formula sport too.

(almost bought a formula sport)

yeah i agree with that was well happy when my formula sport came with sports trim red and black because the'd run out of the formula trim!

disagree the formula sport seats are exactly the same underneath so no difference in comfort.. and i reckon they do look alot more stylish with the red stiching

Am I the only one with a DAB which has red stitching on the seats?

nah just googled and found quite a few...

I wonder how they decided which ones though, as the ones with red are all 56 plates, and my car was october 2006, so surely mine should be red inside too....

I've still got red but it's an 07

It's probably all random!
