Re: rear wheel bearing ?
If your trading, don't bother fixing it as your not gonna regain it on your cost's....
If you are keeping it...consider replacing the rear disks also £150 for 2 x rear and get both done. When one goes the other is sometimes never far behind. Just my 2p

Re: rear wheel bearing ?
Deni, just paid < £ 100 for rear wheel bearing. Surprised as I've just had new rear discs (10 k miles ago) and they have new bearing as part of the fitting.
Easy job for garage - spent a month driving round before it was sorted (1 k miles) but if you are keeping get it sorted asap
