Servicing Plans

[Silver Arrow]

I have read some topics about this, but is it better to buy a Sytner or Inchcape service plan, or the Lexus own one? I'm being told that the Lexus one is likely to be more expensive, but it means I can use any dealership, rather than being tied to a franchise.

Anyone with any experience on this?

Anyone?

I've got the Inchcape Lexus dealer plan. Have had it ever since I bought the car. Has saved me quite a bit and Lexus Nottingham have always taken good care of me and the car. I'm guessing all the plans you are looking at are based at a main dealer anyway so hopefully it shouldn't make any difference??

Well it might. I've seen Sytner and Inchcape quotes and when one was cheaper, the other followed suit, which makes me think they are taking the michael..... Both are trying to sell me their own plans, but I wanted to compare prices to the Lexus official plan. I was told the prices haven't been announced yet by Lexus.

If the pukka Lexus one is similarly priced then I would take that as it means I can go to any franchise.

One thing is for sure - Lexus are horrendously expensive to service compared to any of the german cars.
