Are These Reasonable Charges?

    Independent garage for work on an 07 Plate Kangoo 1.5 DCI diability car.

    Timing Belt and water pump kit to change belts £106
    Power belt £10
    Anti freeze £8
    Wiper £8
    Diagnostics £35
    ABS Sensor £26
    ABS Ring £9
    Carry out service to spec sheet £117
    Sundries £6
    Environmental charge £4
    Labour 7 hours @ £45
    Vat £129
    Also cut a cable for wheelchair ramp and cleaned out washer bottle

    Total bill £776

    My quibble is the amount of labour charges. Timing belts usually take around 3 hours? So 4 hours were spent on fixing the ABS? Do they charge labour for a service or is that included in the £117?

    Cheers

    It doesn't look too bad to me, where are you, prices tend to be higher the closer to London you are.
