Default How much for a clutch?

Just wanted a bit of opinion. Widetrack 05 none Dccd car. Just been quoted 350 just for fitting on a new clutch and flywheel. Does this sound right for the car?

What? Supply and fit? The clutch is usually around that on it's own!

No sorry I meant for the fitting part of it. Clutch and flywheel come to £600. But wasn't expecting another £350 for the fitting. Just wanted to make sure it sounded right and wasn't paying over the odds.

£350 sounds a tad on the expensive side. Should be easily do-able in around 4 hours if they have done them before. £87.50 an hour can't be bad! But surely you would have got a quote before allowing them to do the work?
