Ok. I collected my car from NRMA MotorServe today.
My wife had dropped it off there this morning, and they quoted her a price of $215. They admitted they made a mistake with this price, and were very good to honour it. And to top that, they even applied the member discount, which then worked out to be $205 all up. The main reason for the underquote was Semi-synthetic oil vs. Fully synthetic.
Despite all the Valvoline product displays, the receipt quoted that they used Castrol Edge Sport. They left me a small bag of lollies, and did not wash the car (which is only a good thing!!).
I am a happy customer - heaps cheaper than my nearby stealerships. I think I might do 1 service with the stealership just to get computer updates and stuff like that, but not a full service. Maybe one of their "summer offers" or something, provided those cheaper services qualify to get the computer updates
