I have been quoted 350 quid for an estimate of 6 hours of welding on both the chassis legs. If you guys think it’s a fair price, I’ll take the offer as I like the garage as the staff is helpful and friendly (Mondeo man in Ls12). However, I’d like to ask on this forum as you guys are more knowledgeable than I am. Do you think it’s a bit expensive or is it the average price? Any recommendations?
Doesn’t sound like a bad price to me, especially if you can trust the guy.
When I did mine last Christmas it took way more than 6 hours just to remove all the bits and pieces and indeed replace them afterwards, flush rad etc.
Thats before a single slice with a cutting disc or a metal fold to make the new chassis members.
This is just for the front legs, apparently. I don’t know, the mechanic has told me it would take around 6 hours of welding and he would charge me 350 quid. Does that sound fair to you? Thanks
