Telephoned British Legends this morning in Southend and they have quoted me app' £550 for the belts to be done and the thermostat and water pump, with all tensioners etc.

I am well chuffed with that, really nice chap as well.

Good that you got a nice price & nice to see a MK1 owner looking after a great car rather than sell it on due to the price of this service..
Well looked after MK1 is defo a future classic..

I am going to look after it as best I can mate. If I look after it, the car should then look after me. Also I want it to be in as good condition as it can for when I sell and get a nice xpg mk2 in a couple of years or so :)

I know Steve @ British Legends, have done for years now and he does all the main work on my 180 and other familymembers cars.
Is genuine and honest when it comes to what the car needs & doesnt and is the only person i'd have working on my own car.
Plus only live 5 mins from the workshop so its local for me too.

Top guy.

That's got to be handy, only 5 mins away. Think I might have it serviced there to at some point! I know a couple of people in Southend so might make a weekend of it :)

Yeah it is handy when it comes to having bits done on the car but it helps that he's also a very close friend so also works.
Another reason why I always trust him is because I used to work with him so I know exactly how he works & what he does.
Well if your making the trip down mate may as well make the most of it :0)
