We had agreed that these services would be carried out before I collected the car but they were not. I think this was a simple mistake rather than a deliberate omission. If the dealer were local to me, I could just take the car back to them and have them do the service but due to the distance, that would mean a 300 mile round trip and a whole day wasted so I'm not going to do that.

I phoned the dealer this afternoon and I'm still waiting to hear back but I presume the easiest option is for them to pay me the cost of the services. Roughly how much should I expect to pay for these two (apparently minor) services?
Brake fluid is around £90 and I presume the SVI is the MOT which is £54.Don't forget the service book for the bm stamp to say it's been carried out.
