So to the £340 we had in post 4 we can add

BRAKE FLUID CHANGE £66.50 INC VAT (But probably more like 100 from any other dealer)

So that takes us to about £440

Include a coolant change and you're up at about £500+.

All the rates I found myself are from Woodmans so expect other dealers to be more expensive. Then you are quickly approaching the price they've quoted you here.

And I wouldn't be surprised if they've changed your disks as well as pads, whether they needed to be changed or not. This seems quite common from dealers, there is a lot of letting off steam about this in M2 threads.

Thanks for that. It'll be interesting to see the breakdown when I pick it up later. After investigating further it seems I could have bought the breather pipe from them for around £8 and fitted it myself so I wonder how much they've charged ?. I'll keep an eye on the disc thing too. Will report back.
