yeah bushes themselves don't cost much, and the labour if I remember correctly should be about £100 or less?

That's for the suspension bushes. I think he's talking about the exhaust hanger rubber thingies? Unless I've totally missed the point :confused:

Ohhhhhhh. See, that's why I'm not a mechanic

The bushes have to be inserted under a lot of pressure, hence you need a press which I think is a specialist tool, it's not something that can be done by hand
