I've come to mistrust the fitters ( there are very few mechanics these days), and I prefer to do the work on my vehicles myself. I've had too many experiences of garages setting up jobs that don't need to be done, and replacing perfectly good parts to increase profits.
Your cynicism is very well placed (IMHO). The less one can be beholden to the state (for nonsense taxes and MoT tests) the better.
