Question Labour price guide? Does one exist

Hi all,

i was wondering whether there was any sort of price guide for labour charges on Fiat cars generally.

I mean especially if you can get the parts yourself so all you have to fork out for if the labour expenses.

Cos basically you can go to a number of garages and get different quotes!!
(Thats not new news).

Would be good if a guide does exist so some dont get really ripped off!!!

Charton.

The labour price will be dependent on the franchise operating it, and the amount of overheads they have to cover. This will vary around the country, like all businesses.

If you want cheaper, go to a local recommended independent garage.

or, as I seem to be constantly recommending these days, find a local mechanic with a good reputation that works on the cars at home. You'll know the jobs a good 'un and you'll save a small fortune.
