IMPORTANT!
This information is for guidance only. Each repair will be assessed for condition and cost of repair as item 3. Main problem is that it is possible in the case of a breakdown to do all possible to achieve a satisfactory standard at stage 5, only to find that it is unacceptable/beyond economical repair at which stage we would need to look into a more in depth repair or quote for a replacement.
