How much will it cost to repair my car?

Unfortunately my Vauxhall Vectra diesel died recently :angry: - I called AutoAid for a home start but the injector seals have gone so its got to go in to the garage. Apparently the work will set me back £200 or so. Does this sound reasonable? Is there a website where you can check these sort of things?:confused:

Grateful for any help.

    No there's not a website where you can check these things as labour charges vary immensly.

    £200 sounds about right.

    If you are unsure give a few local garages a ring for quotes with exact vehicle type, year and engine size etc details and details of the work required.
