Been quoted £716 (inc VAT and labour) for supply and fit a clutch and flywheel for my 00 UK Turbo from a VERY good garage who does a lot on Scoobs.

Sounds like a bit "too good to be true"... Any thoughts or impressions anyone?

you pay for what you get would be my answer

do you know anything about the parts proposed to be fitted ? make etc? standard replacement?

all the best

as a guide we would supply & fit an O.E. type clutch for around £350inc.............L&B O.E. flywheel (8kgs) is £135/exchange extra.............

for the price you've been quoted i would hope your getting an "organic2 at leats or its from a main delaer??
