Two years on and the second service is due 9 June 2009
I took the Citroen C1 into the dealers this morning for its second service. One of the mechanics there said at the 2 year service it really needed the brake fluid changing, at a cost of £39.00 I have worked on the Land Rover brakes often enough to know that this cost is reasonable, especially for a main dealer so I told them to go ahead.
About an hour later they phoned to say the tyres were close to the limit and the two rear ones had slow punctures so they needed new ones. The Michelin ones were about £68.00 each so I checked on Kwik-Fit and that seemed reasonable too. I didn't want budget tyres on this car since we use it daily and better tyres last much longer, so we'll see!

The garage sent me a SMS txt message about 4:30pm saying the car would be ready about 5:00pm which was when I collected it.
Third Service and MOT June 2010
I changed the windscreen wiper blade at the beginning of June 2010 at a cost of about £16.00 from Halfords.
The front tyres had been getting close to the limit for a couple of months so I had two new Goodyear Duragrip ones fitted at a total cost of £130.00 including balancing and disposal of the old ones.
The service and MOT were done by the main dealer on June 4th at a total cost of £129.15 including the MOT test which cost £30.00 so the cost this year all came to £275.15
