thanks all, it will £1800 for me at a not so sunny coastal town up north, have had an extensive conversation with the service manager and asked exactly who will be doing the job to ensure no youth training scheme lacky gets his big screw driver out and goes to town on it like my other jobs at my "other " ford garage.
Says will take a day as its their first one, to ensure they get it right, did promise a loan car also.

Also am now on Broadband from today so another little treat.

cheers all
