The Aston came back from it's annual service & MoT yesterday. £1215 including VAT.
The rear subframe had a bit of rust on it (pretty much the only steel section in the whole chassis), so
the whole car is now going to have to be repaintedI had a mere £240 bill to treat and repaint that. The perils of buying a car from Aberdeen I guess.There was £110 for a wheel refurb, cos I scraped it on the concrete kerb of a French péage but otherwise a lovely clean bill of health, and ready for more continental adventures this weekend.
Aston Martin, being cheeky sods, only put 8 spaces for service stamps in the handbook, and then have the temerity to charge £15 for an extension service record. This is despite the handbook being loose leaf, and it being trivial to insert extra pages.
