Hi There fellow Alfisti, help needed for Alfa Servicing in Manchester please!

Hi All

I am new to the forum, but not to Alfa Romeo. Been lucky enough to have owned a 145 1.6ts [sold sadly ] but now own a 156 2.0jts . Slowly making my way up the Alfa ladder... Alfa really know how to make cars with soul.

Question:
The 156 is 2 1/2 yrs old and has just done 24K miles. The car is asking for a service. My question is where can I find a good independant specialist in Manchester? The main dealer [Caledonia] quoted me £340 inc for just the service and a whopping £730 inc with the cambelt change

Any help appreciated!

Thanks in advance, Zendium

Sorry! Should have posted the question elsewhere! oops...

HI Z and welcome.

Seems to me like a good enough way to intro yourself!

Hi, welcome to the site, best advice is always to stick with independents and not use main dealers unless you have to

Thanks for the posts - What a great forum, replies within 10 mins! Any idea who I can go to in the Manchester area
