Its actually an independent that I'm speaking with, not one of the "big chains". £150 for the screen, £70 for fuel in the V70 and I've still got to get it fitted... £250 all in doesn't sound too bad! Semi contemplated a second hand, but again, the logistics of collecting it and then still having to get it fitted mean the £250 is still looking the most favourable.jamescarruthers wrote: ↑Tue Jul 23, 2019 8:55 amMy backup was to get a screen from Yorkshire Trade Windscreens who have an advert on eBay for a £150 screen. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/173937579718
I spoke to them on the phone at the time and they were nice enough and said they had the screen. Maybe you could collect in your V70 and save a couple of quid? Unfortunately, they'd want £100 to deliver to MK!
Don't forget for full 480 bonus points that you can drive to the MOT in goggles, without the screen, should you want to get a pass under its belt sooner rather than later. Only absolute legends do this!
And yes, currently contemplated Screen less MOT - Remove wiper and disable washer jets and it's a pass (with Advisory)
Obviously, Sale price with MOT is much more favourable (and is rising with every job! Want a cheap auto, jump in NOW!). Need to poke the rear arches and sills before sticking it in though.
