How much would you expect to pay? using £35ph labour charge

Have been told seals are approx £40 each + 2 hours labour, cambelt £150ish +2 hours labour = £370 + £60 service = £430

Seals are £11.75 each and could take up to two hours with a couple of tea breaks inbetween.
Belt is expensive mate, you can get supply n fit for £150 if you shop around.

I think somewhere like Midland Impreza would probably halve that cost, maybe £300 max.

If you replace the whole lot inc all the other rubber seals ie sparkplugs,bolts,half moons you are looking at £40 bloody rip off if you ask me.

Don't know about the rest of the stuff but I got a OE belt for 80 quid. 150 seems like they're taking the mick!
