That is very good service rates for 3200/4200 and GS....Main dealer as well......Had to happen in the end I suppose.

Just a small note, I think the collection / delivery service is by driver not trailer, when I used to use Lancasters the driver (a really nice older gentleman) was sometimes dropped of at my place in a newish Bentley, it must have been a bit of shock getting out of that and into a manual 3200.

Interesting that the 4200 annual is £50 more than the GS. Any ideas why?

Maybe a time aspect.....something was improved on the GS that meant less time needed to carry out that aspect of the service?!

Good prices but I am still wary about using main dealers when they generally find more things 'wrong' with the car that need doing once they have it in their workshop, then you have to pay the high hourly rate to get them sorted. Maybe I am too cautious but I prefer to use an inde who I trust.

If they were near me I might try them, much lower price than our local JCT 600. I will try and give JCT the chance of matching Lancasters and see where we go. Indies are probably the best value long term.

Do those rates include the fluids, mine is booked in with Shiltech next week for service £450 plus vat plus fluids comes to about £650

I may have forgot the gearbox oil as last year they did not change it as I had some work done the month before under warranty from the people I brought the car from. Does that make sence....

I do not like the sound of an oil flush at all and for a fuel flush just buy a bottle of Redex.
