servicing

well the car is 5 years old now so i think its time to change the coolant and brake fluid. what is a reasonable price for this. i am also looking at getting the gear box oil changed aswell as i dont know when/if ever these 3 things have been done

Well, the coolant should be changed every 4 years and the brake fluid every 2 years, so your servicing schedule is a little out.

i know the serviceing schedule. it was a ex mg rover car so it may have been done. i have only had the car a month so i think its best i get it done. how many people have their coolant and brake fluid changed as per schedule anyway!!!!

I'm pretty sure mine was serviced as per the book before I got it, the service book seems to say so anyway.
