Right to cut a long story short i sent my dittery old man to get the two front tension arm bushes pressed out at my local nissan dealer who previously dealt with rover ( i used to own a rover coupe vvc prior to the zx and found them very reasonable for parts etc) anyway he phoned me and said it maybe tomorrow before he can do them but he would phone when done

 

Fine i thought

 

Then 1/2 an hour later i get a phone call saying they are done and i have a bill of £ 65 plus vat

 

Am i paying dealer prices or should i go and give my frail dittery old man a slap for being so gullable:rofl:

it takes about 10 mins to press the old ones out and new ones in, yip your paying dealer prices thats for sure LOL

tell them to put the bushes back in cos thats a rediculous bill for such a small job then do it yourself

I wanted to but the bushes were mangled they probably would've knackered my arms puttin them back in :x:

£65 plus vat is a good price, any j0b these days big or small is about £75 an hour, with the price of oil and so on you have got to understand peopl,e have bills to pay
