Not sure that being 'able to afford a GTi 180' is any real achievement.

I thought that was a fair estimate. The price could vary by over £200 depending on where you take it. Some garages may let you supply your own parts, others will get them from their own factors as they can make money on them.

I'd want to see the look on the mechanics face when you tell them you want to make sure they are doing it right and using the right tools. You'd get the keys thrown at you and told to do it yourself since you are the expert. If you can't trust the garage that you are taking it to, to do the job properly, maybe you should be looking at a different garage.
I love the way that people can't take a bit of humour and then get abusive because the answer isn't to their liking.

Crickey you're a right little s**t aren't you.
After speaking to a member like that and showing yourself up how can you possibly still expect to get a response from someone wanting to help you?!
Being able to afford a car which can purchased now for 2 and a half grand isn't an achievement in the slightest.
If you "can at least afford a gti180, and get the cam belt done" go to the f*****g dealership and get it done for 500 quid. You can afford it right? And I'm sure they have all the right tools

 My comment (whilst completely pointless) was just a simple joke, not a cheeky reply. What your response was, was uncalled for.
