A car service, unlike an MOT is not mandatory, however it is strongly recommended for many reasons, including: Making sure your car is in working order, to maintain its value, to save you money in the long run and to extend the life of your car. There are 3 different service types to choose from at Central Autopoint – A major service, full service or interim service. Not sure which one’s best for you? Check out the table below.
When (Miles) | When (Duration) | Cost | |
---|---|---|---|
Major Service | - | Bi-yearly | From £157 |
Full Service | 12,000 Miles | Annually | From £112 |
Interim Service | 6,000 Miles | Every 6 months | From £87 |
A major service is the most comprehensive of all the service types, as it includes all 60 checks and items to make sure your car is working to its full potential. A full service is the most common service type, which, while it only includes 40 of the 60 checks and items, it is done more regular`ly and costs less per service. An interim service is the cheapest service type, therefore includes the least amount of checks, an interim service is recommended for motorists who either drive their car very often (for example: driving their car is part of their job) or if the car being driven is older than most.
There are various reasons for needing your car serviced and making sure it’s up to date.
There are different amount of checks depending on the service you get. However, all of the services will include an oil and filter change, which is one of the most important parts of any service.
