Surrey servicing?

Post by playalistic » Wed May 12, 2010 12:47 pm

Looking for a good dealer to service my zed soon, i'm in the Farnham area, any suggestions? Was looking for some servicing experiences with vines in Guildford as that is pretty close. Or the one in Hook.

Cheers Gannet. Will bear them in mind, although it is a little further than I would have liked to go :)

Ended up using Barons in Ash Vale for an inspection 1 and brake fluid change. Cost just under £400 so hopefully didn't get stung too bad!

Hope they treated you well, I've just had a second falling out with them so will be looking for somewhere else for my Insp 1 :(

Friendly enough and the car was fine after. What happened if you don't mind me asking?

No problems with them actually on the car, just a bad attitude and rude people when trying to get them to look at it. The girls on the desk are polite and there is one young chap (Chris ?) that is very good, but the older service staff there are poor imo

Fair enough chap. Well I'll be moving to Reading soon so probably won't be using them again anyway :P
