Subaru pricing shock
 
Need a bottom ball joint for my MY99, didn’t have time to get one from Camskill (£25 +£8 p&p) so decided to bite the bullet and get one from my local dealer on the way home last night.
Me thinking genuine Subaru part it’s going to be a trousers down job :eek: but need one soooo…….

I was shocked to say the least at the sum of money demanded …….

£24 including vat :eek2:

Gob smacked absolutely gob smacked :thumb:

I assume you just bought the part?

Had my bonnet cable replaced today. £20 in parts, £55 in labour ..... oh, and + VAT!!!

Part prices are becoming more realistic, but typically main Dealer labour charges are in the clouds.
