Expected price for getting my Supe serviced

Hi all. I need to get a decent service done on my Supra and want to get an idea of what price is reasonable. Also, if there are any suggestions for a good place to get it done. I live in Bristol and work in Newport so a place either side of the border is fine.

I need a full service that will replace all fluids, filters, plugs etc and also want my timing belt done as I'm on 74k miles and am not 100% when it was last done (I've owned the car 7 months). I'd also like a thorough inspection to get an idea on anything that may need doing later.

So far I've been quoted £599 for the above. What do you all say? ;-)

That sounds about right to me mate, although you may well be able to get it under £500 if you shop around.

Ive not used them but these are that side of the country, may be worth a try:)

MKIV store, did mine for that amount on the weekend, excellent job done, car is purring better than ever now Fully recommend them get in touch with Jody T, based in Bristol obviously.

I drove Ross' car not long after it had been serviced by Jody T at Mkiv Store and it ran like a dream and ross did recomend them also saying what a fantastic job he done. He is no longer there but give him a pm.

just to say,had a few jobs done at mkiv store with jody,actually my cars there know, after the backend decided to flip me out into a wall, got away with it very lucky ! seems only a new set of alloy's and a suspension set up, but they are trading out of interpro in thornbury, bristol. if u need no. i'll try and find it for you.

I cant belive with all the threads of people cars f**ked with and moneys owed people still use them:blink:

I've used them a few times now, the car's going in for a new clutch and some other bits and bobs tomorrow... As I've said before, I can only comment on the Post-Lucifer days, but they've (Jody) been very good to me...

Ek, thats a scary comment about them. If I'm paying good money for the work I want it done right. Are there alternatives in this area?

I haven't heard of any in the Gloucestershire area tbh...

Dont want to start a whole other mkiv store thread but.....

I have used them a few times last few months and they have been very good to deal with.

If Jody T is still working out of Interpro i would happily use him for any work to my supra.

Anybody have contact details for mkivstore or whoever they are now? The site has just gone down. Thanks.

Nothing to worry about if you deal will Jody T i just got my Car back from being converted from NA to TT and the quality and service that boy offers is second to none! Definatly worth a shot

Any contact info? I need to call them to get booked in.

Thanks

Toyota main dealer wont even charge that much! £300 odd for a major service and maybe around £150 for the belt change.

my local toyota garage quoted 3 prices £300, £500 and £700 depending on mileage !?!?

surely they all quote the same ?

I'll check my documents when I get home for the quote.

Cheers mate. Sold now though.[sAD][/sAD]

Will get another though without a doubt!!!!!!!!

I think that the bulk of the problems with mkiv store seem to have been with martin. (Don't know a lot about it all so can't comment).

But if you deal with Jody T then the guy is more than willing to help out and does do a good job.

Give him a chance guys.

Glad you sold it mate. Get what you was after? Someone got a good solid motor there. A member?

I did get quite close to what I wanted cheers. Guy paid cash. Woo hoo! wasn't a member on here. May be soon though.

so that's £450 for the lot?

and i'd rather take mine to someone who's actually seen a Supra before (i.e. not a toyota dealer )

Ok, been through my receipts.

A service costs have ranged from £180-210

My 63000 mile service (major one) cost £210 and cambelt change + spark plugs was ~£300 3 months later.

* Obviously these arnt todays prices, but over the last couple of years.

The dealer I goto is actually mentioned in the original Supra dealer handbook and they have seen them.. so no problems there

I phoned my local Toyota dealer and they quoted me £475 for fluids filters plugas and the belt change...

That's for a J-Spec import too...

hmmm very odd.

you think they'd use the same price guide...may be not.

well the guy who quoted me was rubbing his chin a lot so probably plucked them out of the air..
