Servicing in Oxford Area

[Myles]

Anyone know of any cheap/reliable specialists for a 30k service on my Leon Cupra, in the Carterton/Witney/Oxford area? 400 miles until its due, so the car keeps reminding me. And also, am I right in thinking that it will be cheaper than a 20k service(how much should I be expecting?) So many questions!!!

I took mine to Swindon for it's first service as I needed some warranty work done too.
There is a Skoda garage within 5 miles of Brize and I think they'll get my business in future.

Completely off subject, but did you receive any letter from Thames Water ref. hosepipe bans. I didnt so I am going to continue washing my car until I am informed otherwise. Is there a hosepipe ban yet?

 

[cheekyfella]

Yep I got a letter a couple of weeks back, I think the ban came into force on 3rd of April.
£1000 fine if you get caught fella!
There will always be some jealous A**hole that will grass you up.

Bollocks! Are jetwash facilities at garages also included? It pisses me off, there are leaks spurting all over their patch, and they are penalising the customer. There should be a rebate if they want to tell us how to use it!

I hope not, I've been taking mine to the Handwash place in Witney that's run by a load of Eastern Europeans and they do a top job, a fiver for a hand job! sounds like a trip I did to Singapore

Where is that in Witney then?

Behind a petrol station (Texaco I think) near the car auctions.
Go under the A40 through Minster Lovell then turn right at the T junction and head into Witney on the back road, it's down there on the right hand side just before Witney Motor Auctions.

Are you on Tangmere? I see a Silver Leon parked there with a couple of Ovni ones when I go past.
I'm on Britannia Close.
