Hi all, Curiosity got me again
I am curious to know if anyone here has any experience with Thames Motors in slough - We've used them since reg vardy told us to P*** off, and the other local fiat garage told us to it would be three weeks before they could fix the air bag.
Our experience is they have been very good, but where I begin to wonder is if they are ridiculously expensive.
For example - Other day, the Mrs took the multi in with egr valve problems - they told us that the new EGR + MAF would cost £700 - paid for, obviously, as it was no longer safe to leave the forecourt with it.
Also - New cambelt at 55 000 miles (All praise the warning light for that one) - £600
The annual service also generally costs £300+ (I suspect it will need some new suspension part this time round, tis squeaky :S )
Is this us paying south east premium or just excessive because, well, it can be?
Should we go elsewhere?
Thanks
