This winters been lovely with all the snow, but its cost me for abit of work on the car.
I've had a service and a new wing mirror fitted for £100.
And to come I have, new wishbone and fitting, timing belt, tracking and new pads. This is going to cost me another £100.
All considered, how good are these prices?

Cambelt, service and pads aren't anything to do with winter 
Neithers the wishbone, tracking or wing mirror come to think of it

i think he means winter as a space in time, not as an influencing factor

Just had a quote for new cam belt, water pump, tensioners and that came in at £200 so I think youv've got a pretty good deal. Wishbones are £25+ each too. Have you got that as a written quote?!

The man at the garage said he wants £100 for pads, wishbone, tracking and belt doing.
So thats what I'm giving him.
