Service and MOT sweepstake!

[pauljmcnulty]

Guesses please, nearest to the actual figure wins the right to pay the bill for me...[]

My car's ready, after a month at RPM. Not seen the final list, but I think it's had all the following:

MOT
Service, only a little one. [&:]
Belts, water pump, tensioners, oil seals etc.
Welded rear suspension mount
CV boots
1 rear wheel bearing
a couple of light bulbs

[]

Hmmm

parts... £1150 ...labour..£1000
total £2150

mind you I have no idea if they used OEM parts or what their labour rate is..

[jdpef356]

Well how about £1449 all up[8|]

 

[Eldavo]

£1278.37 inc Vat

 

[Copperman05]

Wouldnt like to say, just spent £850+ on mine for 48,000 service and belts (at 4 years and 33,000 miles).

I soooo hope ELdavo is spot on. I have a horrible feeling PSH is nearer. [&:]

 

[simdel1]

I don't like the sound of the prize much...

Anyway, I reckon £1451.67

Good luck Paul!

 

[andy watson]

£1764.78

Good luck with getting the payment from the luck winner.....[][]

I am sensing a lot of out of hours gardening coming on once the weather breaks..........

 

[edh]

£1673.26

(I reckon they took pity on you and threw in the bulbs for free [] )

you didn't say how many cv's of course..

 

[Joss Walker]

I collected mine from them last week and the bill was closer to twice the value of the car, so good luck

 

[Ewan]

£2400 Inc Vat (which includes for all the other stuff that was needed, unbeknown to you at the time!).

 

[zcacogp]

Dunno the answer McNulters, but this thread makes me ever more grateful that I do all the work on my S2 myself ...

[ukmastiff]

1956.87

The 87p could win it for me []

 

[PSH]

I think I should point out that I was being very conservative with my guess, I didn't want to scare Paul to much...

What I would charge you Paul.

Belts and tensioners £180
Water pump £210
Wheel bearing £150
CV boots £100
Welding £100
Service £150
Labour for above service and belts £200

I would say it will be about £1900 from RPM

I would charge you about £900 to do that Paul!

Yes, and all us southern jessies are waiting for you to move to the home counties so we can queue up and use your services!

[scam75]

There's got to be some recompense for putting up with our cold wet miserable climate......................would much rather have your slightly warmer wet miserable climate!

I reckon 2 times what Al would have took which is £2180.

Stuart

 

[DavidL]

£1600 give or take.

 

[simkin911]

£1875

 

[VanhireBoys]

Euros or Sterling...?

Either way I say about £1700 ... []

I really feel for you on this one Paul.... Its a good job its the summer and theres plenty of gardening work for you !

I done similar work last year and this year .. I just didnt add it up as Id say I sank about €2000 + into the car and thats on parts alone as I did my own spannering ....

Good Luck Paul and hopefully the boys wont b etoo sore on you......!
