Yeah, I'm inclined to get the work done.
The quote to reassemble as-is is ridiculous, I reckon they might have pulled a high number out of the air to encourage me to get the work done.
Once the work's completed then it's hopefully in good shape - up to date with servicing, Yokohama tyres 4 months old, genuine 75,000 k's on the clock - reckon it'd be worth $150.
Here's the content of an email they sent to me re: warranty on parts and workmanship:
=======================================
Good morning Greg,
As per our phone discussion this morning all parts listed on invoice provided on collection will have a warranty from the manufacture of 12 months or 20,000km (whichever comes first) & workmanship warranty on repairs carried out is 6 months or 20,000km (whichever comes first).
Kind regards,
Emma
