I called about 10 ford garages for a quote for a timming belt (focus) 2 months ago and the cheapest I got was €350 (dearest being €950). Then I rang around a few local indi garages for a quote including water pump + labour and was quoted €350. I ended up paying €330 as the girl quoted incorrectly, I sh/t you not.
