Full Service
Price: From £270
Duration: Up to 4 hours
Our Full Service is our most complete maintenance package, recommended every 12 months or 10,000 miles. It includes everything in our Interim Service, plus new filters and spark plugs and a wheels-off inspection of your brakes, suspension and underside.
If we spot anything that needs fixing, we’ll call you with a price first. In many cases we can get the repair done the same day.
