    Servicing costs are very confusing between dealers and MG - no consistency in prices or descrption

    Hi Aitch, I took your advice and did get to speak to Nicola Warburton but the price was £331.51, she couldn't say why it was so much, just that's the price unless I took out a service plan whihc would be a little bit cheaper. So crazy money, I'm staying with my local dealer, but thanks for...

    Prtces are crazy, the Drive Group (Leicester0 now quoted £168.32 when I tried to book it in but then rang back to say they made a mistake and that it was £182.85, so I rang MG Stonacre in Derby and they quoted £227.75. I know hourly rates can be different but we have price variations from...
