re:  Is $150 a fair price?

Well, of course the British have only apparently recently learned
about rust, and the gas tank on my '89 Range Rover rusted out and
required replacement --  $405.  Just a few months after I did this I
was reimbursed by Land Rover North America because this became a
safety recall.  I could have claimed installation labor, but I did it
myself and didn't (didn't recover the $50 I spent having the new one
fixed when I broke it either).  $150 is wonderful.  My friend with a
Eurovan says dealer wants $600 to replace fuel system clamps that are
leaking on all Eurovans with new design.
