2008 207 mirror back - how much?!

Hi,

Just looking for some advice on how much i should expet to pay in the
uk for something.

Some nice person (thank you very much) decided to smack my drivers
side mirror and send the housing fling into the road, to be crushed.

Its the top and bottom part of the back of the mirror housing, the
insides are fine.

Anyway went to our peug dealer, and they told me 70+ vat (painted!)
for the part.

Lo and behold - it arrives and its only the top part, go back today,
and hes telling me its another 79+ vat for the bottom part!!!

So thats almost £200 for some thin plastic??? Surely it cannot cost
more than an xbox 360 to get the back housing for a mirror?

Or has the world totally gone mad, and thats what the cost is?

Thanks for any words of sanity!

 

Have you not heard of breaker yards?

 

Nope, whats one of them?

 

A small area for CB'ers

 

Thanks for that, next time im down at my local car scrap yard, i'll
keep an eye out for a rubber duck,

Quack Quack, good buddy,

Out

You laugh at me because I am different
I laugh at you because you are all the same

 

?

 

Keith you want to fit one in your car,i have had mine many years and find it very helpful,like your bit at the bottom if you cant laugh at life it anit worth living hahah well i went away to luxor on the 5th of this month with the wife and she passed away in luxor hospital on the 15th so i did not see much of luxor,trying to sort every thing out now in england, so every time i see your thing i just laugh,

 

I'm not one for gadgets but as I get older I do have a bit of trouble
sometimes finding places and my TomTom has been a godsend. No stopping
every 2 minutes to read maps and yes I have been send down a dead end
street by it once or twice.

The CB on the other hand relies on you either knowing someone on the
other end who actually know where you are going or managing to find
someone who isn't winding you up to deliberately get you lost and can be
heard within the few miles reach of a CB. It also requires that Johnny
DJ isn't practising his talents on the One Four when you are trying to
use it.

Oh yes, the sat nav can fit in my pocket.

Thanks for the laugh Keith.

 

Chris, I was so sorry to see your news. Please accept my sincerest
condolences on your loss. I can't imagine what a shock it must have been.

You are in my thoughts,

Keith
