HEADPHONES Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 I would ask what they plan on doing for the £680. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SHEZZA Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 I’d say they’ve allowed to change the spark plugs as it’s 5 years old. you need to be asking what your getting for that price P1,P2 or P3 and any extras like the plugs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bikeracer Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 (edited) At my local Nissan HPC p1 is £119 p2 is £219 p3 is around £279 spark plugs change I think is £199 Therefore at 5 years P2 + spark plugs should be £428 Hope that helps Edited February 3, 2018 by Bikeracer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bikeracer Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 HPC is Nissan High Performance Centre. my nearest is West Way Nissan in Aldershot who quoted me those prices, however they charge an additional premium in the first 3 years whilst the car under manufacturers warranty. West Way Nissan Birmingham charge £159 for the same service Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not all Nissan dealers can sell/maintain GTRs, guess the 370 is also in that bracket but not 100%. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Showed no interest, on the test drive just told me the obvious stuff. After getting out of the car he was ready to lock it up, i had to ask him for a look in the boot and for a listen to the stereo. Then on return to the shop, he was discussing the deal in the general tea area, on top of a cabinet. Disgraceful! My mrs was buying a Merc just weeks before and the service was night and day! Needless to say i didn't buy the car from Aldershot (he didn't deserve the sale). I went to Mill Hill, not that the service was a scratch on Merc.

I think i am extra begrudging as i do a lot of mechanical on my other cars and know the cost of parts. In the grand scheme of things, £199 ain't bad.

Foo56 Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 (edited) I had mine done on a 58 plate HR at 48kish which came in around £270 I believe - They did say I should have spark plugs and break / trans fluid done ideally but not essential (did them any way via another garage) - If your service includes all that then explains the price but still seems a bit rich in my opinion! Just FYI - Spark plugs from Wessex Nissan in Bristol (fitted) would have been £201 - The HR have more expensive plugs than a lot of cars so didn't think that was too bad (though still had it done elsewhere for less!). ignore me - 370z section not the 350z I thought I was in lol.

Ekona Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 ^^^ That. However, don't forget you can haggle prices at a main dealer, they're no different to anywhere else. Might be worth it when you look at the potential value that could be lost to Mr Numpty who wants to buy your car but feels it's crap without a FNSH. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ekona Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 Either or, tbh it's not really relevant to a main dealer what indies charge as they're not in direct competition, and you'd expect to pay more for the value of the stamp and the nice sofas, free coffee & biscuits, pretty receptionist etc. Just how much more is a value only you can decide 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
