I have just done mine this weekend.
There are 2 types of subframes. The way you tell the difference is that one is black and the other is grey. Pre 1993 cars have the grey subframes and post 1993 inclusive have the black ones.
I once had a quote for a new front subframe which was around if i remember wright was £400 + vat. From a scrapyard they are from anywhere from £30 up.
