Hi. I'm looking at buying a new 181 Skoda Fabia. It’s the a Ambition model but basic enough. They offer a service plan at €13.99 a month for three years which is a total of €503.64 over the three years. They say it is an “Oil Service”. On the Skoda site it say: “What’s included in the service pack? This is subject to slight variations per model but for all models it includes the following as a minimum: 1 x Oil Service at 15,000 Kilometres or 12 months (whichever comes first) 1 x Inspection Service (including oil change) at 30,000 Kilometres or 24 months (whichever comes first) 1 x Oil Service at 45,000 Kilometres or 36 months (whichever comes first) Brake fluid change (applicable to most but not all models) Please can you tell me if this is value for money or if I’m better just paying for the service as it come along each year. Thank you for your help.
Hi Joe,
You’re always better off paying the up-front service package, as it’s always a discount on the paying-per-go service. That’s assuming you want to use a main dealer, as you may be able to get a better price on servicing from an independent specialist.
