Not sure up your way but i got quoted about 400 quid from interpro in bristol and 150-250 various other places that dont necessarily deal with rs`s but were willing to give it a go!! In the end i went to Jano @ oddkidd creations in essex. Bit of a trek and cost me £40 in fuel but setup was only £50 and ran perfect afterwards.

it varies greatly on what needs doing to the car.

If it goes in running pretty good then obviously its going to be pretty cheap. Last time i took mine in for a tune up I had a dodgy actuator that needed replacing so that obviously hiked the price up with replacing the part and then starting again

most place charge around £50-£60 an hour on the rollers i think.

Newton Abbott is down devon way. Not sure down there but nearest to me is Bristol and thats Interpro. Quite expensive but people seem to get on alright there. I took mine to Oddkidd Creations in Essex and it was a top job but Essex might be a bit far from you.
