That's a great price, what would you normally charge and how long does the job take?

A 12 hour day that's all. Up at 6am, get there 10am, leave 2pm home 6 pm.
A nice day out for you :thumbsup:

It would probably work out cheaper than having it done at a garage here as well. I've just been looking and it just over the hour from where my relatives are so might split the journey [emoji106]

He sorted mine was well happy with it all..., nice and quick too. I have had garages telling me they needed it overnight, two men to do it etc....

I think bowser is referring to mine as when it was repaired the motor was stupidly loud on closing at the last stage, took it to BMW and they diagnosed it as faulty motor and replaced it all FOC, so happy days.

I'm in Lancs as well but when my roof goes kaput - as it surely will soon as it's getting noisy - I'll be asking Bowser to do it. I'd prefer it to be done by somebody who knows what he's doing rather hand my P&J to an unknown repairer. At one time of day I'd have tackled it myself but I don't bend very easily anymore. I can kill 4 hours darn sarf :)
