[QUOTE="PeteWilko, post: 180842, member: 5631"] My 6 year old 133 cup has only done 20,000 miles but I was strongly advised to change the cam belt as it could cost anything up to £2,500 to put right if the belt snapped or slipped. I was quoted £520 for a full six year cam belt service, to include replacement water pump, pulley's and a new de-fazer gear. (It had sudenly become very noisy on start up). I ended up also having the rear brake discs, pads and wheel barings replaced as well as the front brake pads and a front off side wheel baring changed. They also saved me 300 quid when they welded up a split seam on the exhaust middle section that had been blowing for weeks. the total cost for all this work came to a very reasonable £1,000 including VAT. So yes, I think you can do better than £1,334 for a cam belt service. The garage that did the work for me are based in Doncaster. I can can give you their details if you don't live too far away.
