Hi guys, Just a quick question. Does £475 sound like a fair price for HG, Water pump and Cam belt doing? Cheers. Joni.

Seems ok but get some quotes from other garages so you can make an informed decision before hand

Remarkably cheap for a main dealer, especially including a courtesy car.

I paid about £450 for a major service and a cambelt at a peugeot main dealer last year, so that sounds like a bargain to me mate!
