A very rough guess, the condenser (its basically a radiator like aluminium thing usually sandwiched with the radiator etc) would guess aftermarket £60-80 then you need someone to re-gas it, a mobile type co can often do, the major amount of time is getting the bumper off, swapping out the condenser and putting back together, re-gas depends on the A/C gas type the older cars R134 refrigerant which is cheaper (suspect yours is this one) newer cars maybe since 2013/2014 use a more eco friendly but more expensive refrigerant R1234YF cost probably double the old stuff, just a re-gas is probably £70 upward for R134. You need to make sure youve fixed the leak, before refilling and pinhole leaks can be hard to detect, mostly its the condenser corroding or stone damaged, but can be other things.
