Default Cambelt Change - Where in the Midlands area?

Can anyone recommend someone in the midland area for a cambelt change?

Wife's Forester 2.5XT is due and to be honest I just don't have the time to sort it myself...

Cheers,

Ed.

Have heard good things about Pole Position, in Willenhall.

Will be taking my scooby there for some work in the new year!

Looks like Willenhall is a bit far realistically - but thanks anyway.

More specifically was after someone round the Leicester to Peterborough area.

Thanks for all the replies guys - looks like I have far more options than I originally thought!

From a mileage point of vire its just tipped 50K if memoery serves - still on the original belt.

Excellent - I know him - but had no idea he'd set up on his own!
