What is a reasonable amount to pay for included maintenance on a lease?

[jaysinha]

Hi,
I've been quoted included maintenance of £47 inc VAT a month on a 3 year lease of an MG HS PHEV Trophy.
Is that too much?
How does it compare with actual service costs?
My concern is that PHEVs are complex (petrol+electric), and there is more to go wrong. I've had reliability problems with other PHEVs in the past.
I haven't been able to check the service plan cost on the MG website because it asks for a VIN, which I don't have.

I suggest you read this thread: Service costs

As you can see, I put the cost (correct as of June 2025, so they may have risen since then!) in there.

• Doing some quick calculations, as of June 2025, the first 3 years of servicing was approx £22.50 per month.

I pay just over £20 for 3 tears servicing plus MOT & AA cover

I got my car on a 4 year PCP. I paid £1200 ish up front for 4 years servicing plus 2 MOT’s at my dealer. Works out at £25 per month.

nearly £1700 for 3 years servicing on a new car sounds like someone's aving-a-laugh!
