Manchester Ducati

After pricing up a service kit on Ebay, oil, filter and belts for the S4.(genuine parts allegedly) I decided to have a drive to my local’ish Ducati dealer, Ducati Manchester. On arrival I bit the bullet and asked how much said parts would be…

The best I could find on Ebay was Belts £103 oil £32.99 Shell advance ultra, and a filter £12.99, a grand total of £148.98.

Ducati Manchester Belts £87.22 +vat oil £42+vat (ouch) filter £9.16+vat and a complimentary sump plug washer. A total price, including the dreaded vat £165.

So dealing with really nice peeps, looking around at some very tasty machines and clobber, and a free coffee, cost me an extra £17 ten of which I could of saved getting the oil from elsewhere. So as a first dip into Ducati service prices, I was quite impressed, and I’m as sure as I could be that the parts are genuine.

Also the guy in the service dept said any technical problems, just phone and they will talk me through it.

So all in all very impressed, and when my lottery numbers come up I know where to spend some of it.
