Windscreen costs?

Got the chance of an M reg diesel corsa for £100

Problem is it needs a front screen for the MOT and the lad has been quoted £250 by autoglass.

Anyone know where I can get one for about £100?

What's wrong with the screen that's on there at the moment?

The screen looks like crazy paving on the nearside. Its delaminated as well and has failed the mot.

Its the second time its happened in the same place just this time the lad let it go to the point it requires replacement.

I've just had a ring round and got it down to £75 so for £175 I can now own a 100,000 mile 1.5td Corsa that I seem to remember paying 7.5K for way back in '95.

I sold it 5 years ago for 2K and now I'm getting it back as my aged Rover needs a clutch.

This time its going veggie powered and the turbo requires some attention me thinks....
