Hey all,

Quick question for you, as I thought I'd just ask on here...

What is due at the 100k service for the Leon Cupra?

Is it a biggy, or normal service? I've had plugs etc all done recently, just wasnt' sure what else needed to be done.

Just want a rough idea - thats all - I'm having to juggle money about as I'm about to exchange contracts on our new house - but I must make sure I've got enough to service AND tax my car in September :(

Cheers folks

your still doing tons of miles i see then Pabs!!
 
Yes my friend, I am doing lots! :(

However - I move house in October - which will 1/2 my mileage! :)

Anyway - tis why your car beat my figures at the last RR even when your car was running badly! It's because mine has done soooo many miles! lol


thanks DPJ - 20k service wasn't too bad IIRC.
 
its a 20,000 miler. however it does of course depend on dates as well as mileage and what you have had doen previously.

eg
have you had the timing belt changed?
coolant last changed?
brake fluid last changed?

No worries with that little list mate - the fluids have all been changed semi-recently anyway, and timing belt was done on schedule too, so thats cool.

Thanks for your replies - has cheered me up knowing it's not going to be as expensive as i first thought :)
 
tell you what pabs, i am catching you up mate, just went to hull and back twice in two weeks! just about to cross the horizon of 85,000 miles ! :( bought it 3 years ago with 24K

i would love to not run the car into the ground so am considering buying a diesel runabout, Octavia maybe. gotta be done me thinks

hehe - you'll never catch me, not unless you drive MORE than 30k miles a year.... :)

Having said that - it'll decrease soon - but I'll already be saving for the Supra :) haha

I bought my car in 2004 with 35k ish on the clock. 2.75 years on and I've covered an extra 65k, probably 70k by the time it's been 3 yrs!
