Service plans

[-neil-]

service plans, I know nothing about them, all I'm thinking is that u can pay so much per month to a ford garage or maybe another to have a service at the end of the year, or put the money aside each month yourself. Any thoughts or info anyone may know on this? Thanks

It tends to work better if you are keeping the car for a while.  A good service plan will give you say 3 services for the price of 2.

I took on a 3 year plan from the Trust Ford dealer when I bought my car (2.5 years old at the time), gave me the servicing, MOT's and discount off parts and accessories. You pay extra for anything required that's not part of the service, eg: discs and pads. And because it's service by Ford I got the free breakdown cover every year. 

I paid for the Major service after the plan ended (should have done 4 years, nevermind) and now service it myself and get my own breakdown cover with Autoaid.
