ZS 2021 43,000 mile service £467 Rip-off?

[Laurence Brown]

So, this is Baylis in Gloucester. Just seemed like an awful lot to me for a 1 hour service while I wait, and an MOT. A/C filter. Key battery. Brake fluid + screen wash.

Very grateful of course that their vehicle health check report offers me a Green tick mark for the Engine Oil level and Exhaust System/Catalyst.

Very reassuring huh?
Anyone know about the Kiddermister MG service costs?

Baylis Gloucester are hopelessly out of kilter with their service pricing. I asked them to quote for my 4th service (low mileage) and they said their system doesn't recognise the low mileage option so came up with a figure of £372.44 for a standard mileage service.
Checked two other places nearby and they came up with much more realistic quotes:

Drive MG North Bristol - £150.94
Cinderford MG - £108.50

As you would guess, I'm booked in with Cinderford.

Hmm, thank you Alb, yes that's intreresting. I will ask them for a quote as well. I'm a bit fed up with being overcharged.
Thank you so much.
