The labour is only a portion of that ... £472
You are paying for fitting of subframe, adjusting tracking, fitting
handbrake
A lot more than just tightening 10 bolts


Plus, as he is a one man band and not VAT registered, I saved £400 in tax.
New engine cover as well as painting and adding Waxoyl to the subframe.
