Service price ?

It's a pity I can't magic your cars over here ( if I can find a decent spanner man ) as labour rates work out at only about £30 per hour !
I'm hoping to carry out an oil service including fuel filter and change the engine mount near the water pump.
Can anyone tell me what that might cost in UK so I can gloat I mean compare prices.
Just out of interest.

It'd cost me parts only, so all done for under £100.

Me too cause I'm a decent spanner man

Oil over here is about £1.50 a gallon and the oil filters are 5 for £1

And maybe one day we'll land on the moon !

I got 8L of Shell Helix here for $50 (£25) on special. Oil and air filters about £4 each, engine mount was about £25. Shipping usually ends up costing about the same as the parts.

Hi hope you enjoyed your Landy show ? Just wanted to compare prices out of interest as I know how expensive it can be in UK.
Have already fitted new air filter so I'm only looking at an oil service plus diesel filter, engine mount.

Looks like you had a great day, all those landys, how many actually made it there lol. Nodge has been helpful re my rear wiper but I had a quick look today, it looks sculptured if you know what I mean ?
I can't see a patent part fitting nicely but I still can't lift the wiper far enough off the rear screen as spare wheel stops the arm lifting much more than 2 inches off the screen.
Tried it with window open but wiper sits below window !
Not an urgent job so will wait till I get new lock set. Then take off spare for easy access
