    It won't be a huge amount. Have a look here :

    You can see how much it would cost you to buy the parts yourself. You're talking an hour or two's labour, tops, for a garage to do the job. But armed with a Haynes manual and a bit of common sense, brakes are a relatively easy job for even a novice DIY-er :-)

    PS. I don't work for the website I mentioned, but have used them in the past and been pleased with them. It's useful to get a guide price from, expect to pay a similar amount from a local motor factors ( not Halfrauds ! ), plus of course you'll save on postage costs.

    Feudal Britain needs land reform. 70% of the land is "owned" by 1 % of the population and at least 50% is unregistered (inherited by landed gentry). Thats why your slave box costs so much..
