I was gonna say,your prices are pretty epic Big Grin
Depends who I ask, either free or not much at all. Had a cambelt on an XUD done for £30.
The place I go to is about £35 to 40 quid an hour, Our local motors discount garage charge 40 quid an hour!
Lottery? The people that make these things really are morons...
The guy I use when I don't have time is officially £30 an hour but he doesn't charge me anything like that. He charged me £50 labour on a clutch change on an XUD for example.
We're £39 per hour at my work. Think the boss should bit it up a bit so he can up my wages Smile
do all my own work, more fun
The independant I worked for 9+ yrs ago was £60 an hour then.
Peieved me right off when i was on a fiver an hour and often doing 3-4hr jobs in 1-2hrs!
He was such a greedy git.
That was hereford


Round here (cotswolds) small garages its no less than 55/60 and main dealers are round the 100-150

Hence why I am always hounded by friends
