FAQ · Dublin 5

How does this compare to a Dublin city dealership?

Independent labour rate is typically half of dealer rates. We use OEM-spec parts where it matters. Manufacturer warranty isn't affected by independent servicing in Ireland (Block Exemption Regulation), as long as schedules and oil specs are followed — they always are with us.
