hi sorry if this isn't the right place for this post but i couldnt see where else to put it.
the clutch went in my fiat punto two days ago and i couldn't bring it to the guy who usually fixes them cos he is in tipperary and i live in mallow so the guy who came from the breakdown assistance towed it to a garage he knows and always recommends.
it's fixed now but they are charging me €420 - anyone i talked to told me it would be half that and now i'm wondering am i being ripped off or is that actually a realistic price?

thanks for any help

€2000 for me

Needed a new flywheel as well, which was nearly half the cost alone.
