Very interesting and I think  I will stick with my mobile man, no VAT and £37/hour or the garage down the road £55 + vat for the stuff the mobile man can't do. It's a dam shame how folks who don't know better get ripped off bymani dealers whose costs are not much different from my "garage doen the road".

Where did you find that chart of prices?  

 

That will not be the labour charge @ Victoria Garage Maud if you go there with your Skoda or any car for work.

Is it even the hourly rate at Skoda Aberdeen, part of the John Clark Motor Group.

UK average dealers hourly rate. More expensive down south.

BMW discount for cars over 3yr as well, or they did.
