Today I picked up my car after having it's B service - costing £416. I bought this car off my company where it was run by Inchcape Fleet Solutions. I asked for a copy of the invoice for the last B service so that I could keep my service history records together as and when I sell the car..
To my surprise I saw that the last B service cost £383... well of course I queried why the difference - to be told that they got a discounted labour cost as they wont pay their rate of £104 a hour...
I asked for the same rate only to be told with a grin if I buy 50 cars from them they will give me the same rate..
As you can imagine I am doing a Queen Victoria ( we are not amused)...pity we cant all get together and get a group discount rate..between us we buy more than 50 cars a year and could demand this discount too..
Also I thought there was EU rulings against this ....
