Mates rates?

yeah... £350 all in.. plus fitting a new headlight bulb and fixing the cig lighter for the sat nav

the only thing the lazy git didn't do was replace the indicator stalk as the indicators don't cancel out after going around a bend.. this means I still have to lift my fingers up after going around a corner to cancel out the indicator... you just can't get the staff these days!

Some people are never happy  :rolleyes: :grin:
Sounds like you've got a good contact there.
Have you given up DIY? too old like me?  :lipsrsealed: :laugh:

no, its just that it isn't my car... it belongs to my better half as it were

if I play about with mine and get it wrong then it only affects me, if I piss about with a ford that I know nothing about and it then goes tits up with the knock on affects of school runs, getting the good lady to and from work.. plus... the car has been, touch wood, pretty much spot on in the time that she has had it, if I start playing about with the engine and something else starts going wrong with it then guess who would get the blame! i'm leaving that one well alone!
