The clio is due in for MOT next month, first one since i got it .... fingers crossed but seems fine.
The last one i did for the nova cost me about ?65 for a tiny bit of welding and some ickle bits here and there that they were just being picky about :lol: Cant remember what it was, but was nothing really.
mine needed ?200 of welding :o . it was that much becasue he wanted to remove loads of electrics. I did it for ?0, setign fire to my car in the process :lol:
?250! :evil: welding in mega hidden area by tie bars, new wheel (chunk out of the old one on tyre wall), track rod end (wobbly), light bulb being out etc.
lol
?39 for MOT
?90 welding
?28 x2 rear wheel bearings
?2 for pack of 2 brake lights
?2 for pack of 2 side lights (cause i forgot to change them bak from my led ones) D'OH
Parts alone for my last MoT were ?547 :o
Then labour was only ?200 (friend of family) :D
But it was well over 15 hours of work.... if that had been any other garage my final bill wud be near a grand im sure.
