Great comments, I also live in a village and know professionals who really know what they are doing. I also resent paying people to do what I can, and generally don't. There are occasions when time and other commitments lead you to pay up.
Someone else will probably paint my windows this summer for the first time. I just have other things to do and I've known the guy for over 30 years.
I did the HPFP and hydromount myself (thanks to the help on this forum) because the labour charge was going to be substantial and I had access to a garage at the time.
It doesn't have to be a constant rule to DIY, circumstances alter decisions.
