GR86 Service intervals

Albeit a new car (<12m old and with 38 miles on the clock), TOL would not sign me up to a service plan as I am the 2nd owner of the vehicle. They insisted that I try taking one out with my local dealership. Given that the Service Manager at Western Toyota Halbeath hasn't returned either of my calls, nor responded to any of my emails (after having been given his card to contact him) I have decided to use an independant Japanese car specialist garage instead. It might be 20 miles further away but at least they've replied to my enquiry! I'll probably do the extended Warranty service plan thing after year 3 but, until then I won't be bothering with the dealership.

My dealer insisted this 10 year fixed price plan doesn't exist. I signed up to a 3 year plan as a result. :(
I didn't specifically ask about it but I wasn't offered a 10 year plan, only 3 years.
In my experience it's best not to take anything a dealer says at face value - they can spout a lot of rubbish with a supreme level of confidence...

That's disappointing and inaccurate as other members have successfully obtained the longer plan, unless of course Toyota have now decided to retract it.

When I collected my car the chap started talking about a 3 year plan which I declined saying that I was after the 10yr one, and he went away and returned shortly after saying no problem we can do that.

I had the same issue with my Dealer.

Forget about the dealer and give Toyota Online a call. I just changed a few weeks ago (8 months ownership) from the 3 years plan to 10 years and they had no issues with it.

The only downside is that you won't have roadside assistance for free (Something that is included in the 3 years plan from the dealership). Because I live by myself in the UK and if something goes wrong I could only rely on the Insurance, I've signed up for the 10 years plan + roadside assistance which comes about 45.95 a month.
