I think I paid £200 for a complete driveshaft fitted after a cv joint failed on my old 4x4.

Just had a slightly split cv gaitor done at an indy a couple of weeks ago for just over a ton cos the two of the three joint nuts had seized and snapped off so cost £27 to replace that too. Used to do it myself back in the day but simply can't be arsed nowadays to get that mucky! CV grease is hellish stuff. :)

 

Think the part was about £20 or just under, but that's just the gaitor, give about an hour's labour on top of however much the actual joint is.
