Hi,
Sorry in advance if im posting this in the wrong section of the forum.
Ive checked on the bookmygarage website and have noticed a few mercedes main dealers on it giving significantly reduced rates for servicing which is slightly cheaper than even the local specialists.
The servicing they use is interim, full and major with the major including all the filters. For a quick estimate a service B from the main dealer was around £530 which was just oil change and pollen filter whereas the same garage booked via bookmygarage with a major service was around £269 which included all the filters such as air, pollen, fuel etc.
I rang the garage up and they knew about the website and do take bookings from it, they said they use original mercedes parts as well as stamp the service book as its still mercedes carrying out the service just a different price.
Was wondering whether anyone has tried a main dealer booked via this website and used them for the service? Also say if there was a repair that needed to be done, would you think then the main dealer would use their high labour rates or still continue with the reduced rate?
I dont think everymain dealer is on the website, only ones that probably have an agreement with bookmygarage. For reference if you want try and search yourself use the postcode HP9 1QJ and it will show the main dealer garages that come up on my search local to me.
Would love to here from people with their opinion on this and whether it sounds too good to be true?
