Quote for Expansion Vessel Replacement

Hi All,
I thought I had found a trusted plumber, but he's given me a quote (and asked for cash :eek:) which has got my spider senses tingling.
I need a replacement expansion vessel on my cylinder (the tank is currently leaking, he was unable to pump it up last time, and the vessel is sitting at a funny angle) when he was here a week or so ago he said it would be £50ish for a new vessel. He's just told me that it'll be £180 to do the work, and £80 for a boiler/tank service.
Is this fair?

We have a Classic Ideal standard boiler. Recently, the expansion vessel broke down. Got a local plumber out to cost the work. Told to replace the expansion vessel would be around £600. Looking through other wuotes listed on the internet, this quote seems expensive. Is this correct?0

An ideal classic doesn't have an expansion vessel unless one has been retro fitted ?I'm only here while I wait for Corrie to start.
You get no BS from me & if I think you are wrong I WILL tell you.0
