500 quid to do a fiat HG wtf! would only take a couple of hours either side of the head being skimmed!

There is a good place in westbury to get the head done if you do it yourself. Will try and find the name/number if you want it?

She is running well once again. cost for mechanic £80.00 parts cost more than the mechanic how cool is that. The compression is back to full and she has her mojo back. MPG has increased lots too, so well happy.
