That seems a bit steep to me. Shouldn't it be around £250?

My car is in today and they have recomended the change and although under the mileage by the bit I want to make sure my car is spot on. However I'm not sure if to get it done at a specialist in Nottingham instead.

Thanks

A set of plugs is about £60 and its around 1 hour's labour to change them.

I used these guys for my plug change on a 987.2 S. Cost circa £100 from memory. A bit of a drive up the M1 for you but they are open Saturday mornings. I use them for all my work, highly recommended. i even got a sausage roll and a latte (from the van that does the rounds) last time I went when I got my engine mount changed, all for the princely sum of £40 smile Don't expect polished marble floors and secretarial services though wink

Just to give you an idea of what's involved:

£350 sounds ridiculous.

Thanks both - they have dropped it to £200 which I am happy enough with.
