Valve job for a 88 300E

Hello,

I am new to this forum and I like to ask a question. My 88 300E is due for a valve job. I bought the car with 134K miles three years ago and now it is burning a lot of oil. The speedo stop working at 145K and I am sure I have driven the car around 40K.

Can anyone please tell me how much it should cost approximately? I am not going to MB dealer, but I have a friend who's brother in law is a certified MB mechanic and actually works for the local MB dealer. My friend told me, that his brother in law wants to do some work after hours for extra money (expecting new baby), so I am thinking to let him do it.

I like to know if possible what would be fair.

Thank you
Herk
