ARRRGGHHHH...servicing prob...(long)...

[Messiah]

DJ,

Heh you live just across the gorge from me.

Now i'm pretty sure i figured it out already (smart cooky is i) but just to make sure i'm right can u pm me this guys details, seeing as i live near you i can see myself considering the same repairers, and i dont want to even consider this guy.

me too.

a idea would be for owners to form work groups (your area) for help & repairs hands on. example would be say service so when cars due you get together & do together (great way to find little things wrong & gain info first hand)

you may already do this, it's just a thought.

I think this is an excellent idea.

Some of you may have warranties that require certain service people to do the work, but for those of us who dont doing group services would be a good way of saving money, learning a hell of alot and having the bonus of pulling the scene closer together.

If ppl do this already does anyone mind if i join in, and if not anyone want to start, hell i'd even volunteer my place... got 5 acres so theres lot of room to mark cars and work.

[Jimbo2000]

there was talk of this a while ago but i dont think it ever got off the ground

Messiah;

I'm gonna void my warranty so yeah... sounds like an awesome idea... i'm not due for a service for about 3 months now but if we could do that it'd be a great learning curve + savings....

Well really it should just be a matter of seeing how many ppl would come on a particular day, buying a pile of stuff in bulk (oils sparkies etc etc) then splitting the cost between the numbers.

With a good quote and a rough idea of how many people are interested seeing if its feasable should be pretty straight forward.

Hmm... what would u call it tho? "Group Service"?? hmm.... might whack a note on the NSW section... if i'm lucky it might get stickied.
