£300 with the tensioner, i would also budget for a water pump as well as if this is noisy when spun it will need changing at the same time.

most places charge £150 for just supply and fit the belt only, if you are paying less than £300 for supply and fit a complete cambelt kit they are obviously using substandard parts.
