Service History - Renault?

[Inequality Street]

Hi,

The 3 year service is due in a month or so on my 200, so the first big one. So far I have full Renault history, would you continue with that? Or go to a specialist on here?

just after some opinions as I'm torn.

Thanks

Depends if your thinking of selling up soon or not. If no then go specialist. Car value is going to drop anyway.

Specialist allllll the way.

A specialist is often cheaper too!

Why would that matter?

Specialist for certain.

Tbh i'd rather the car had been to a specialist than a main dealer if i was looking to buy one.

Point taken, will start having a look for one in the Essex area.

Cheers guy

Full Renault service history on a Renaultsport would actually put me off.

Unsure on where to go now though lol, the likes of 519 for example are just under 2 hours away

My 225 has one Renault stamp in the book from brand new the rest are all from a specialist who had maintained it since then. Specialist all the way.

If you see a specialist in the service history, the chances are it was owned by an enthusiast who cared for the car.

What about if you get 4 years free servicing from Renault?

Just sent him an email to see how much he charges, must admit, never having had a newish car long enough to need to service it, I haven't a clue what £££ to expect.

Phone Renault and ask them. There's your benchmark.

hour and 20 absolute max!!! I used to go to the Halfway House for car meets quite a lot, which is 10 minutes up the road from Rayleigh, it's an easy trip.
