Two things here.1. The thread is not about price, it is about trust, Raid has repeatedly told us the franchise dealers he has been speaking to have been giving him duff information, the service booklet details what needs to be done and an indie can do it, irrespective of price.2. Whilst it is easier to simply accept using the dealer as the onus of any issues fall directly with them should a warranty issue arise, if you don't trust the dealer and have a reputable indie you do trust which one do you as the owner actually go with? It becomes a personal decision.I was simply highliighting an alternative that Raid can explore, should he wish to....
The answer to your question depends on your mileage, if you do more than 10k miles per annum, then you do not need a stamped interim (10k) service, so if you choose to change the oil at 10k, which will be less than 12 months, then you can do that yourself, as long as you use the authorised parts and consumables.If you do less than 10k per annum then you need a stamped interim service.

Fair call Brian - yer pays yer money an' yer teks yer pick.I have always used the main dealer to service my cars in order to avoid any inconvenience or hassle in the event of a warranty claim. Also I am lazy and it's the easy way. I recognise however that my philosophy in life "that you get what you pay for - pay cheap - get cheap" sometimes is not necessarily true.If I knew of a reliable indie and the cost saving was significant - I would go for it - but I don't.
I received this from Hy in an email the other day.Hope it helps.

I think it is mad that you do need a 12 month service at 9,999 but don't at 10,001!!
