Normal alarm is a horn not a siren mate, the siren is for the battery disconnected alarm.
They maybe want to replace that (the power sounder)
Easy way to test it is remove the ignition key, wait a minute or so and remove the battery earth, it should go off.

The alarm horn is a seperate bit of kit, same as a normal car horn which is probably what is faulty in your car.

Remove the scuttle panel and you should find both.

As for £200 I think someone's taking the mickey.
