Just to correct - It's Boreham not Borehamwood
I think the price of just the belt itself would be around £90

The only 2 specialists I know are Extreme Scoobies & Mocom Racing.
I used Extreme Scoobies recently for an full A/C recharge & to give my car the once over.
Good value & good chat. Probably will go back to him for some mods to be done.

I've used these for 2yrs now, have been brilliant with me and the car. Prices are very agreeable, all backed up with superb knowledge on any Jap car.

I agree about GBH , they did my cambelt change and new rear outrigger bushes for reasonable money and did a good job.
