Smiffy The high score goes to my local OPC in Tonbridge who quoted £1085.70 including VAT with warning that other parts may need to be changed when it was stripped Camtune quoted :-
Water pump £178 plus VAT JZ Machtech quoted £630.27 + VAT (or 740.57 inc VAT) - no tensioner mentioned Stuart Timing Belt movie for registereed site participantsTheres a movie on the site of a timing belt service.
