Thats very reasonable - must get mine booked in :D

Have you had a chance to better explore the car yet with the new settings??

Is that a V8 M3 GTR or one of their own based on a road car?

There was similar car with the same GT Cup decals at Brands testing with us earlier this week, a wheel fell off it!

Thats odd as I was quoted the limit kit at £85, new bushes at £15.84 each and it takes about 1.5 hrs (£60 an hour) with a full geo...plus VAT...a bit more than £170....did you have the bushes? Even without it's a bit more than what you manage to get....plus the brake fluid oil is 8.50 x 3....so I would say they gave you a good deal compaired to what they have quoted me.

I'm not sure mate, i think it's a straight six? I saw it in a recent Performance BMW magazine or equivalent whilst i was there. It does look the nuts though with its massive WTCC'esque spoiler!

I didn't need new bushes as mine were in good shape. I'm in Germany now so don't have the bill to hand but i'm pretty sure they charged £50 labour. I only needed 2 x brake fluid oil also...

I had booked several weeks prior but due to admin misunderstandings in their office they weren't actually expecting me when i turned up! To their credit they slotted my car in fine so maybe i got a decent labour rate due to the cock-up? They were spot on regardless

Yep they did charge £50 an hour but this went up to £60 on 1st Oct....Sounds like you got yourselves a good deal because of the mess up...
