Curries Watford

Rang for a 12k service cost last week for a Stilo Active told £98 total cost. Went in today and went to service desk to book appointment and was told the pricing menu on the wall is the price for my car £173. As they are from prices and mine is the bottom of range.

Now 6 months ago when I asked about the prices on the wall I was told they were the top prices i.e the £173 was for the Abarth. Told the service guy this and he said no its £173 for your car. So I said no thanks!

Also £173 is £35 more than any other quote I got. I am tempted to call them again in a week & see what price I get told!

Re: Curries Watford

i'm sure when i went in there a few weeks ago to look at the new panda 4x4 they had on the forecourt, i saw the "fixed price service" for a panda listed at about £129, when i called up last week it was £160! so i took the advice on another thread in here and called continental in tuffnell park...£135 and when i told them the mileage (4500) the italian sounding bloke laughed and said would probably be less as the first service is at 12000 and we've not even done half that.
