Ok, so I was going to do my brakes myself and had some great offers of help from you guys to oversee my first time doing this.

Unfortunatly when getting my car checked out it turns out I don't need them though will do at some point later in the year!

The problem is I need a new middle and back exhaust (Best quote £150!), new offside rear brake pipl (Best quote £50 min) and headlight has gone cross eyed (Free at HiQ if i let them do the rest of the work)!

Now I am certainly not going to crawl under my car to fit an exhaust or do this brake pipe as I don't beleive I am capable.

I need to find a decent garage I can trust, does anyone in the area know of such a place that may be cheaper in these hard times?

cheers

Smiler.

Probably get dozens of suggestions within minutes if you asked the same question in the Thames Valley forum. Sure I'm the only person in Berkshire that actually does work when they're at work. Except for now, obviously! biglaugh

What a dreadful insult. To think, he actually accused me of going to work!

Actually very surprised how quiet it's been so far today... Suspect I'm one of the few desperately procrastinating this morning!

And how was the work from Andy? I have a nasty feeling I need a new clutch in the 328, and my usual garage are not keen on the task.

Looking for anything to keep me away from "Missed'yer Clutch" or similar.

Andy was brilliant when my S3 needed a new head at the end of last year, can't recommend him more, and the bill was eye watering by the end so I'm normally left pissed off.
