Orderd all new drive belts ,not cam,3in total asked for a fitted price ?£86.per hour,

no wonder garages are strugling he wouldnt entertain a drink ,ie £50 ,

seemed most of his regulars are retired folk , by the way this is a local main dealer,

forget main dealers, head to your local little independent on sat morning and ask one of the guys holding a spanner if he want to do it out of hours for 50 sheets. Im sure they say yeah. Not to hard to do your self though if your i little handy with a spanner. Don't be shy, you'll feel good afterwards.

Im far from shy just shocked , parts i get trade prices as ive been going to the same dealer for at least 30yrs for datsun /nissan parts, me kneck is fooced so bit sore at mo to do it my self

ok then deff ask though as i know being a mech myself thats more than a good price for doing them would prob offer 35-40 first 50 is a good sat morning/afternoon pay cheq for a quick job like that

Didnt relise how much g/rates had risen , alwayes done the work meself before ,

main dealers more than others but yeah sicking a bit wages stay the same though just started on my own with a mate, and were one of the cheapest i know of around here at40 p/h for general stuff but a bit more our specalist stuff but no were near as much as that

Good luck with the buisness ,look after the staff and they look after you,

yeah would if i could afford them just me and mate at mo. thanks. hope you get sorted, at a sensible price.

Had all these changed not long ago , the prices i was getting from Nissan where ludicrous

 

local garages where around £30.00 per belt

 

So kindly was offered some help from a member here and we done them in no time and was easier than i thought
