How much?

#1 Post by L Austin France »

My newish 4 year old Stihl chainsaw which was running fine when I sharpened the chain & put it away a few weeks ago refused to start on Tuesday.
I did the 'normal' checks, put in a new plug, & concluded that still no spark possibly equals duff spark generator.
It being too hot in the barn to delve further I put it the car & took it to our local BricoPro (ex Espace Emeraude) for them to sort out.
Following a phone call I picked it up today & was so shocked at the bill I forgot to ask the very busy service desk guy what the problem was. I'll ask the next time I'm there but it's working so at the moment who cares? For the princely sum of 16,75€ it's starting again.
Result !!! :D

Congrats! Always happy with Stihl and the service(s) the seller provided. Same seller sold us an excellent Honda mower too. Perfect service on that also.

Stihl fans here too and our self-drive Honda mower is about 30 years old. We had serviced for the first time in its life a couple of years ago and the mechanic said "They don't make them like that today - it's a gem" !
We were disappointed with the Honda ride-on (sold it to my brother :lol: ). The (cheaper) Brico ride-on has been fantastic, far better buy, much sturdier.

Nothing to do with Stihl or chainsaws, more to the title, "How much", my granddaughter tells me that they hired a skp the other day, over £300, blimey I used to baulk at £35 back in the day, certainly gone up in price, no wonder the fly tipping fraternity continue to landscape the place.
