Cost of cambelt change?

[DealorNoDeal]

In which case an Audi TT is not a good choice. I would recommend a car that is cheap to insure, cheap to tax, reliable and easy to maintain.

If I lived somewhere where I could walk to local shops and amenities, I'd ditch the car altogether.

The road tax is a bit high at £260.
But the insurance ain't bad. £208 with LV, which includes breakdown cover and protected no claims.

And the only thing that's gone wrong on the car, in the 8 years I've had it, is an electric window mechanism.

There is a small sweet spot of low emission cars registered before April 2017 where VED is no more than £30:

My parents have the Ford Fiesta (#9 on the list) and it's quite nippy.

Changing the cambelt on one of my ancient Fiats would have cost £1000 20 years ago.

Engine out job.

Fecking brilliant.

I scrapped it.

This one I'm guessing

Nah, it was a petrol 5 cylinder Marea smoke generating machine.

A remarkable piece of crap and no mistake.

The only duff Fiat I bought.

The one I miss most is the 2 litre Croma Super IE.

I loved that car but the tin worm got it.

I had a Lancia Beta with a 2 litre twin cam engine. Loved that car, of course the tin worms got terrible indigestion eating that one in an afternoon.
