Am I being ripped off?

Just got back from my local mechanic, he quoted me 152 quid inc VAT and labour for a new Outer CV joint, and Cambelt. What do you guys think?

BTW, thats for a L - Reg 1.4 Astra LS SPi

If that includes parts such as the tensioner and belt then that sounds about right.

I bought a belt and tensioner for around £35 for my 1.4 SPI astra and persuaded my mechanic to fit it for £25 - it would normally be around £50-60 labour

i would say that is a fair price mate!
