As above really, most folk just buy a rebuilt one. £200 for the one on ebay sounds good, I assume it's a rebuilt one ? As a new one would be a lot more.
I'm gutted for you, they are complete scum tbh.
As said, keep an eye out on ebay to see if the face plate turns up on there (without the rest of it)
It'll be no good to them unless they already have the actual stereo (they may have nicked that from someone else)
You should have got a price for the work BEFORE you agree'd to let them do the work.
Folk always say things to me like, it's not that far etc. Sod that, I want to know how far it is in miles etc.
In your case you basically gave him the green light to do the work, because of this he has now...
I'd hpi it up too, it always gets me wondeing when cars 'look too clean' The mesh grille is awful, it could be that the seller liked it, or scrimped on a repair (if it has had one)
It may of course just be a really nice loved car.
