Hi guys, hope someone can help.

Firstlt i'm posting on behalf of my old man who can't use a PC!

Ok, his 1997 Ford Galaxy failed it's MOT today and he's :mad: over it! now he's been quoted £500 due to it needing a new Exhaust system including the Cat.

I've done a bit of digging about on the net and i think i've managed to track down all the parts needed for around £150!

Now the question is, does anyone now a garage that will FIT it? not getting it from them so will they fob him off??

He lives in the North West - near Manchester if anyone can recommend a decent Garage that will fit the parts only.

He seems to think £500 for the parts and fitted from National tyres is expensive.

Any help GREATLY appreciated.

Thanks.
