Not impressed with my enquiry this morning with D Salmon Cars of Colchester. I enquired about the first service costs for my GPS 1.4. Was quoted £248. I told them I was pretty shocked at the price and would leave it. Within five minutes they telephoned me back and quoted for the following service levels: Gold - £199; Silver - £159 & Bronze £99.99!!
Apparently the first quote I was given for £248 was Fiat's service cost. The next three costs are D. Salmon's servicing costs. What worries me is that if I had just accepted the first quote I wouldn't be any the wiser of the cheaper prices. At the same time I feel I have lost my trust totally in this dealership. I have booked my GPS in for 2 weeks time but, in the meantime, I shall be comparing prices elsewhere.
