Bloody fun I tell you...

    As far as the servicing, definitely cheaper to DIY provided you know what you are about. The number of guys that cost themselves thousands, and half don't even realise that they are the cause of their issues!

    Some vehicles you don't touch yourself - to much dumb shite on them (some Euro and Jap vehicles now have a plastic sump pan with a fitting cast in that the sump plug screws into, do the wrong thing with that and break the sump pan and you're screwed).

    I used to get a bloody good deal on oil, I mean real good as I was in that industry for a while and what I could get it for was about $1 a litre cheaper than the dealer was charging. For an hour or so of labour to do the job, I reckon it cost me more than giving it to them. This was until they pissed me off mind you haha. I can do the servicing myself but I really hate working on cars. They suck.
