Title: Does this sound like a fair price?
Post by: seanjones on 14 September 2010, 12:30:05

Hi guys,

I've been getting quotes for a gearbox oil and filter change. One guy says £96 all in, the other reckons its a half hour job, at £30 an hour.

I'm trying to avoid a cowboy, so does 30 mins sound long enough?

No.

About an hour, my local guy charged £50 took an hour, parts supplied by me.

Nice one, I thought it sounded cheap.
