all depends where you go
xtreme scoobies wanted £250 just for the belt
Scooby sport wanted £380, but this is a 45,000 mile service, where the timing belt, drive belts, oil and oil filter is changed. (using all original subaru parts)
The timing belt alone is around the £120 from subaru
I took my scoob (MY '96) to scooby sport, Pete Croney and his team are really good.
I've spoke/emailed to Pete and he's always on hand to give advice, if he can't do a job, he'll recommend someone who can, for instance I'm considering an LPG conversion on my car as I work for calor gas, and have been given a contact to try.

I had my 45K done at SS - included cambelt - did a fine job.
Then 2 months latter I swapped it in a moment of weekness / madness for MY52...

Cornelius you may want to edit your post as the information is certainly not factual 
Cambelt £120 ish plus vat & fitting £67.50 plus vat (though I do have to advise customers they may or may not need a cambelt tensioner roughly £110 plus vat)
xtreme scoobies wanted £250 just for the belt

I paid 340 at Prosport in Stockport for Cambelt change (it was outside the service schedule, and the 37500 service, and I had a green filter fitted too
Basically the Cambelt was 105.87 + VAT, and labour 59.25 +VAT
1.5 hours work (my rad had to come out, due to bolts seized on the fans)
