Failed MOT

[Kitkat]

Hello,

Just had a call from the garage to tell me my Williams has failed on the following:

Sub frame needs welding/replacing
Steering rack gater
Exhaust blowing
Rear brake pads

Quoted approx £300 plus VAT to sort does this seem expensive?

Think their hourly rate is £40!

Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers
Kate

You can't get new sub frames anymore I paid 100 for a used one that had to be welded slightly then blasted and painted the rest of your list seems simple enough

You're lucky - I just had to have MOT repairs coming to almost £800! Just for the cat, top suspension mount, and front washers

It's a bit steep but by no means unreasonable imo

Thanks for all the replies. Just didn't want my pants pulling down!! Love my Williams but have little idea about these things!!
