Cam Belt change Kent - Best garage?

Hi All,

Im "hopefully" picking up my first RRS 2.7V6 2009 this weekend. It has FSH but is due the cambelt service now at 7yr olds

I've been saving for 4 yrs for this moment and im pretty excited, but could any recommend the best and affordable place in Kent (or near) to get the belts changed and a service done?

I spoke with Rcv who quoted £925 all in, but wondered if anyone had other options out there?

Cheers all!

Dont want to hijack but im in the same boat, 2009 (facelift) RRS 3.0 and she needs cam belt done with a service, 62k miles.

Is ~£900 about right for that?

Im in Gloucestershire if anyone has suggestions.

Hi

Had my front and rear cam belts changed by Barretts of Canterbury, my local Land rover dealer, about a year ago. They charged me £700, which included the 105 thousand mile service as they price matched an offer by Stratstones at that time. I don't think anyone I looked at could get near to that price at that time (2.7 engine) Very Happy

There is Geoff, who is based in Kent, who is very active on the Discovery 3 forum who does lot of work on the RSS as well - may be worth a PM to him for a price - I have used him for a mega flush and was very good Thumbs Up

I also use a company called "Gigglepin" based near Tonbridge, who are very good and always reasonably priced - worth a ring for a price

Have fun

Yeah, 1.2k base, £900 odd on their "service plan" then got a indie quote then went back with that and haggled down.

That is for A service and belts.
