£120 at £30 an hour makes it a 4 hour job.

Sounds about right. Mind you, a decent garage could do it in less time than that.

Took me longer than 4 hours to fit my FK coilover system... takes a bit of setting up after installation.

The garage is well known for their work on VeeDubs, and they specialise in wheels and suspension. They did also state they they would set the kit up aswel.

Thanks Giles, i think i just needed a push in spending the money as the stingy b*****d i am! :mad:

£120 sounds a very good price to me, especially in London, and including setup, can't go wrong!
