Post by: bestie26 on 31 October 2010, 10:34:12
just read article from yesterdays sun about clarkson putting his landy in for repairs to get it back with a bill of £600+ and still having defects ,late return, and bit of trim hanging off , errmmm what hope have everyday people got of a top notch service from dealers if that can happen to him?

 :-? Indolence, carelessness and stupidity knows no bounds! ::)

Major garages `now charging in excess of £100/hour for labour....we all expect better, but deep down we know the truth. :(

seriously doubt Clarkson would go public with this as he's never sought special treatment.

anyway £600 for a Landy service seems about right from a dealers, surely  :o

I was looking at H21's comment BJ - I should have removed the highlights from your enclosed quote to avoid confusion.

I was amused at the subtle juxtaposition he placed on the words "done" and "charged".
