Replacing a rusted subframe, Belfast

    I have a 2007 1.3 cdti Corsa D

    The other day I felt a bang from the front suspension, the car started pulling to the left when breaking and I could feel every bump in the road.

    When I took the wheel off and looked to see what happened I was shocked to find that the front subframe was totally rotten and the suspension arm was not being supported see pic

    Looking to get an idea of cost to replace before I bring it to the garage as I can't exactly drive it around getting quotes

    I've had a look online and the part seems reasonable at 60-90 pounds bit I have no idea what labour would be involved.

    Also what other suspension stuff ought to be refreshed/looked at at the same time and what are the potential costs there

    Finally can anyone recommend sonewhere in the Belfast area to take a look?
