Han you are one lucky sod.
I have just forked out a little over £200 for my windscreen. The same garage passed 2 mot's with a scratch on it and then on the 3rd one they decided to fail it. :angry: Had to get it done rapid as I needed the car and the mot was up so never had the chance to go looking round for a cheaper one.

does anyone know how much auto glass charge for a tin top screen, do they do new rubbers too?  :smiley:

Well I got a quote for a MK2, £170.  This was for a green tint screen with a top tint, after a discount for a local drive-in fitment at a locla place, and another discount for being an AA member.  Not bad considering the screen is 90+VAT from VW, plus another £30 for a rubber.  Still can't afford it though :grin:

The front screen on a tintop is identical to a cabby, so you should be able to get it for around £60 as well :)
