Where's the best (cheapest) place to get the cambelt/Aux belt kits for the Trophy?

Cambelt kit 7701476675 £139.47+vat
Core plug 7700106271 £6.87+vat
Core plug 7700274026 £3.51+vat

hmmn, ignoring that last part I'd only agree, but come on... you can't tell me the oem wiper stalk, front brake pads, exhaust mounts, clutch, bottom end, gearbox and horn are premium products that can't be improved :wink:

Sometimes I think Reno have a stake in a swiss cheese company and they outsourced some parts mftg to them :lol:

Just got a price for my aux belt from dealers, took ages just to get them to find the right part and to get them to understand what car i had. finally got through to them, then they tired to tell me the aux belt and the timing belt were the same thing.

then when i got them to understand the difference they told me it was different but both had to be changed at the same time and the price for this was £758.75.

i have never had any dealer tell me this and if this was true, why would the mileage for the aux belt be 36,000 and the timing belt be 72,000. are all reno dealers clueless?

I'm thinking about getting my cambelt done early at 60,000. Does anyone know if Mark Fish would be a good place to go for this or would it be best to go to Rentech? If I go to Mark Fish I wont have to take time off work, but I might get carried away while I'm there :D
