55,000 miles FSH, couple of small bits need tidying & it wasn't till I got on the motorway that I noticed a bearing grumbling away :( Cambelt(s) change couldn't be verified so a lower price was agreed, the garage that looks after my metro has quoted me ?430 including a new water pump to fit.

I just assumed it was BRG :blush:, haven't really paid attention to the name of the colour, I'll check the book later.

Looks a nice green to me, garage belts job seems a good price as well.

Hope you enjoy it.

Thanks! :D
I'd been quoted ?800 by an ex Rover dealer, so when my local place came back with that price for the cambelt kit & water pump I was pleased.

I've got a small Rover specialist up the road from me as well, I'll get a price from them too before I commit.

I'm planning on fitting an oil catch tank next week as well & after Christmas I'll have the clutch parts uprated.
