Your not going to need to change you cambelt or water pump for another 70k, you've had the head gasket done etc. There's not much left mate.
Im in the same'ish frame of mind but having said that ive had mine for 3 or 4 years and im about to do the timing belt and water pump next week (normal wear and tear), im changing the comms 2000 unit AGAIN but this time a brand new one (common fault). Everything else are little jobs that have been wear and tear like top mounts, drop links and servicing. Last edited by NathanG on Sat Feb 05, 2011 4:23 am; edited 1 time in total
