Paul,
I think the cost was commensurate with the quality of the work carried out. Based on the big difference in cost for front calipers, which are reasonable, the major part of the work must go into the handbrake mechanism where many components are new replacements.
In fact I decided on new P16 calipers for the front since mine were M16 and the shouldered bolts had damaged threads.
