I've been quoted £263 for a new ignition barrel plus £78 (two hours labour) to fit. I've been told they can only get new Barrels form Renault.
I could've gone down the second hand rout but I figured it's always best to go new with certain things.
The car is a Renault Espace MK3.
Is £341 all in a fair price?
What's the procedure with these? do they also change the key?
