My local garage charged me £350 for a timing belt/kit change on a VW Golf so around the same for your Landy I suppose.

Will look forward to that. I'm on the way to making your crank pulley tool but having to get quotes for the steel rings - I don't have a lathe big enough

Wicked ask them to change the front crank oil seal while they are at it as if it goes after you have done it you will kick yourself. They will have it in bits and accessible anyway so only a small amount of work extra for them
