Is it legal to service the car outside the dealer without losing the warranty?
Yes. The EU block exemption regulation for the automotive sector allows maintenance at independent garages without voiding the factory warranty, provided the manufacturer’s schedule is followed and original or equivalent-quality parts are used.
In practice, the difference with the dealer is the hourly labour rate and the service: here you talk directly to the mechanic working on your car. The technical result is the same, because the operations plan is the same manufacturer document. Keep every invoice with the stamped book: that history is your proof in any warranty claim and raises the car’s resale value. If you also want to prepare for the inspection, see our pre-MOT (ITV) check.
Frequently asked questions
What do I need to bring?
Just the car and, if you have it, the service book. We look up the official plan by VIN.
Can the dealer refuse my warranty for servicing here?
No, provided the service follows the manufacturer’s plan with suitable parts and is documented. EU competition rules expressly protect this.
Do you stamp digital service books?
Yes, we log the maintenance in the brands’ digital systems where available, and always hand you an itemised invoice.
How much do I save versus the dealer?
It depends on the model and the service; ask for a quote with your registration or VIN and we give you the exact, fixed figure for free.
