    I was going to suggest you bring it to George. Speaking from experience, I'd not have my car anywhere else if it required such work. No connection with Dalton's other than having my own car worked on by them.

    As for costs, you always get the "sure that's a rip off" merchants on here.

    Thanks, that is why I decided to bring it to them in the first place as they have a fantastic reputation, I know very little about cars and so would never be in a position to decide if something wasn't right on a quote, I can only ask questions. I specifically chose not to mention the garages name as its not my style and they have been very patient with my questions and forthcoming with advice, I have found them great to deal with.

    The quote itself makes sense, the purpose of this thread was to decide whether I'd be better off just taking that money and investing in a new(er) car than trying to keep an old one on the road.
