I priced most bits up, the big bits anyway and asked a local garage to quote me to fit them...looking about £650 ish, not really willing to commit to anything until the cars in bits.
So though I would try dealer today. So £250 for the cambelt, sounds good do far but the rest they needed to price the parts up. I suggested that hopefully some of the labour for each job might be repeated thinking this would keep the price sensible. But having listened to the answer phone message as I was leaving work this is not the case....£1300+. I am stunned!
Anyone want to help me do it. I'll pay cash for labour for someone who has done it before, I would like to learn how to do it, I've looked at how 2 but its a little beyond me alone.
Suggestions on a postcard?!?
