Get the yellow pages out, phone every car window place in there and compare prices

Claim on your insurance mate.

It should be only Â£50

^^ as he says, the excess on windscreen insurance is only usually 50 quid. unless for some reason you don't have it?

i paid 125 quid for mine which wasn't bad, considering im only on 3rd party.
And like yours mine started off as quite a big crack due to hitting a tree, but in the heat it did slowly start to creep up the window and was an instant mot fail
