    If you've benefited from one or more of my posts please remember, your taxes paid for my skill sets, I'm just trying to make sure you get your monies worth.
    If you think you're in front on the deal, pay it forwards.

    The local retired mechanic charged $40 for the nice people,MORE for others.
    A new to town mechanic,South African,with heavy mech trades,lots of Series landy experience from the OLD country charges $75hr.
    Top bloke,had beers with him a couple of times now.He has done a fair bit of our shire servicing,a good mechanic,just a tad too expensive compared to old Rocky!!!

    I don't know I got the shock of my life when a local LR fella only charged me 80 bucks all up for an hour with the P38, 10 bucks worth of parts, cleaned out throttle body, and reset SRS and a heap of other codes with a test book.

    I booked into this place as I have pricing issues and quality issues elsewhere locally and he was within walking distance (7k's) of work. First time my car had been to a mechanic in 2 years and I was thinking he would charge at least $125 just to hook up test book like the other locals do.

    So Yeah I would say you can still get someone who seems pretty good with a full workshop full of Rangies and disco's and defeneders for $50 an hour if your lucky?

    maybe it was a one off?

    You pay for expertice totaly agree ,some backyarder charging $40 an hr takes all day to make the problem worse,and an expert charging $70-100 an hr takes minimal time and the jobs done right.
