€300 might not be too bad, cut the old rust out, treat the area, prime and paint it. Paint alone would be best part of €100. It would be a days work at least.

€300 sounds ok, providing it's a proper job and not a bodge.

It really depends on how deep the corrosion is. What's on the surface is generally only a fraction of what you'll find underneath.
