£200 will be a belt and 2hrs labour, no tensioner or idlers. Hughberry do the same job for £150. Expect to pay about £150 - £200 for the belt and tensioners and then 2 hours labour is about right, so somewhere around the £25o mark for the full kit, or £350ish from the stealer.

I paid £75 for my tensioner and I've seen the idlers for about £25 each. You can get kits from here for £200...
