How much to fit a starter motor in Essex?

[AdrenalineJunkie]

Morning all,
Got my 172 a couple of weeks ago and now refuses to start just a single 'click'..changed battery and nothing so assume it is now the starter motor so picked up a 2nd hand one for £20 inc p&p but I do not have the means of fitting it. How much should a garage charge to fit? how long do you think it would take, 30mins? hour?

Its quite a s**t job back of engine by exhaust manifold. 2 hours I would guess at

quoted £86 at a reanult specialist which doesn't sound too bad :S

I think you've bought the wrong car if your worried about spending 90 quid to get a starter motor fitted!
