Yeah a lot of new new cars have long life servicing that’s a single service in 3 years. That’s the only thing that’s cost me since I bought mine outright is it needed it’s first major service (£330) and then a cam belt/water pump at 5 years (£750). Fortunately I got my dads staff discount on the latter as he works at the dealership

That seems expensive. I have my current Audi A6 serviced by an independent Audi specialist and a full service ( inc all filters - pollen etc) costs around £260. That’s with all Audi parts. I think the timing belt is around £300 but if done with a service you save a bit on labour.

I’ve always had mine done at main dealer, purely because my Dad worked there and I could get the parts discounted. I decided i’ll service it myself next time with genuine parts now it’s had a cam belt / water pump and is out of warranty
