Unlucky fella, the same thing happened to Scott in his Mondeo earlier on this year - mind you the way he drives the cars over speed humps its no surprise.

 £200?! seems quite high to me? a set of springs aren't that expensive, why not save a bomb and do the work yourself?

You got a quote from anywhere else matey?
£60 for the two and fitting costs ontop of that would seem reasonable me thinks?

I know Scott's cost him over £200 for his Mondeo, and the Vectra must at least have somewhat similar pricing??

what for scams? try borough salvage for the springs then greasby car sales for the fitting, quite cheap and honest to.
