Parts prices at Portsmouth Audi!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Post by searider » Thu Aug 23, 2007 5:03 pm

Anyone want to guess how much i've just been charged for a sidelight bulb at Portsmouth Audi this lunchtime?

Knew it would be expensive but Halfrauds were out of stock.

Not even close!

Expecting it to be several pounds I was pleasantly surprised to be told that the parts department was too busy and it would take ages to print an invoice out - therefore no charge!

I had a similar experience, Parts weren't sure which one I needed (brake light) so they gave me two different ones and charged me 45pP
