Ive booked my S in for tuesday at slough honda, the car has only covered 42,000 but I have asked them to do the 54k service early as its the next one listed in the service book and ive covered 9k since my last service.

My question is what are my options for saving money on this service but still getting the royal stamp of honda in my service book. They have quoted me

You could join s2kuk http://www.s2kuk.com and go to a dealer who offers discount, if there is one close by. I'm still working on Johnsons though

Ian, the link does not work as it says an internal server fault

On the service side, I know a dealer that would give a member 10% discount on the service, as he is a current poster on the site, he could also have had his car collected and delivered, washed FOC and he may have even been a happy chappy as well as his book would have been stamped.

And, if I was still at work I would have told you the price I would have charged!!!!!!!!!!!

Ian, I just had a look through the list of dealers and there are none participating in Kent, and the only one in Sussex is Bognor. How do you go about arranging the discount with the dealers?

I'd be interested in seeing if any of my local dealers in Kent would sign up.

Simon - I'll be sure to check the screenwash also where can I buy (over the counter) sprak plugs for the S? Most motor factors? I wrote the NGK part number down when reading the thread the other day, but as Ade73 says, I may not need them. I shall take them along and if needed they can fit mine if not i'll get them for another time

Thanks for the replys guys
