Vauxhall has announced new lower pricing for parts and service across its national dealer network, enabling it to better compete with the aftermarket.

Known as Vauxhall Fixed Price Repairs, and available to all Vauxhall owners, the brand hopes its programme will position Vauxhall retailers as the local go-to outlets for quality parts and service.

It offers a simple choice of two levels of service. ‘Genuine Vauxhall’ provides original equipment (OE) parts for those customers who insist on Vauxhall manufactured parts. While a second tier – ‘Vauxhall Approved’ – comes with a two-year parts and labour warranty for customers with cars over three years old who are looking for a blend of quality and affordability.

Both levels are carried out by Vauxhall’s technicians, and include parts, labour and VAT.

Stephen Norman, managing director of Vauxhall Motors, said: ‘With the Fixed Price Repair programme our customers do not need to compromise by visiting aftermarket retailers, when they can visit their local Vauxhall dealer and enjoy comparable pricing, yet with the absolute confidence of being looked after by trained and qualified Vauxhall technicians.”

The brand is also offering 0% interest on all parts and servicing from three to 12 months. This could mean that a front brake pad service could cost just £24.75 per month over four months (total cost: £99), or a complete cambelt service, £33.25 per month over 12 months (total cost: £399).

The majority of common repairs are covered in the pricing menu.
