And yes Ray you are correct, bulk buying dose drive the cost down somewhat, when they buy 1000+ litres of oil and more than likely pay £3 a Litre you can afford to do it, but the parts alone for me and time to do it sadly is not in that ball park. However when things pick up I will be able to afford to Buy Bulk Lifeguard 6 and hopefully pass the savings on To you guy's.
again large companies like ZF have Testing Rigs and Thousands of Pounds worth of equipment,

I'm not quite sure why there seems to be a Miss interpretation or dissection of what I actually offer here, " I am starting to realize why people Who have businesses fixing and selling parts for these cars faze themselves out of the Forums altogether ... when sadly all I am trying to offer is a solution while not being Greedy with My Margin Either " I'm even happy if people just want to pop in while passing for a cup of tea and a chin wag, "After all I am an enthusiast"

Business is business and it's no secret that there is margin in each job, the difference is I am passionate about A8s and like to treat each car as my own, and make sure people feel at ease,
Every car that comes in gets the same treatment, Recently bought " From Audi I Might Add" This Genuine A8 Front cover Tailored to the Car its a great Fit, "Can't say I have even seen Audi use one" and its actually a VAS part too and not cheap at all



" I know personally I can't bear to take my own car for an MOT without panicking "


I am not trying to offer what ZF do and if a ZF service is what you are after then I am sure a trip to the ZF place in Germany would not be a wasted Trip at all,

" And as for Price .. It will actually be coming down because Mackies have kindly set me up a Trade account on the basis that I Buy all my Stuff for servicing from them direct "
So far .. I can't fault them,
