No one ever had this done?

The labour time is 2.4 hours for the front lower ball joints plus £35 each for the joints.

I am suprised the top ones have gone as I have never had to replace a set.

I recently had top ball joint done on my 211. The ball joint is an integral part of the wishbone and you have to replace whole arm – I paid £172 for part and £40 for labour.
Apparently bottom joints can be bought separately.
