Second service cost

[Barrybarrybarry]

Hi there,

About to take my car in for its second service and the dealer (Bristol) is quoting me £780 plus VAT.

The Lotus website indicates it should be £680 including VAT. https://www.lotuscars.com/en-GB/aftersales/fixed-price-service - now I now that the website isn't exactly kept up to date so was wondering what others have paid for their second services.

Cheers

I'd bought the 3 year service plan but my second service last week was quoted by Endeavor Colchester as £680 including VAT.

Contact Lotus HQ and ask them.
Mention the dealership who quoted the £780 and see what happens

HQ are telling me that as I bought the car second had the price isn't honoured and only applies to cars that were purchased directly, which makes zero sense as the website doesn't indicate that and don't really see what the difference would be.

The person wasn't very helpful when I explained there is nothing to explain why that would be the case.

The dealer is telling me that the extra cost is to check and clean ABS sensors based on a request from Lotus HQ.

I've rang a different dealership and am waiting for them to get back to me.

How did you find the service experience at Endeavour Colchester?

I've been told that 2nd/2 year B service is £726.02. Strange amount. First service was £420.79 at the same place.

My experience has been good so far. It's going back for a replacement steering pump next month.

Ta, I'll be due my first service this year.
I nearly always find parking a problem there, particularly when they are have loads of new cars delivered or it's bin day!
