Main dealer has just quoted me £1500 to have the belt and water pump changed.anyone know of any good/experienced garages in the Kent area?? Wasn't expecting to pay as much as that. cheers in advance.
I was quoted the same by my dealership although managed to get a discount through a friend at the Woking branch and paid £900. Rentech is where I'm taking my 225 Trophy later in the year but they're based in Portsmouth but are £650.
be wary of a quote under £400 Mine came with a receipt for all the work @ £320.. they'd done a bad, bad job of it...
Just booked mine in with mark black. Got a very very good reputation. He does them for £400 all in including genuine renault belt kit and water pump. Get yourself up the M1 mate for a day out and blast in the car!!
I dont know who Mark Black is but Ive already heard his name mentioned a few times. Is he the guy from Diamond?
No, that's me! We do them for £410 inclusive of VAT using genuine parts: http://www.diamondmotors.net/pricing/timing-belt-replacement/ Mick
