Is there a list of them anywhere? Preferably with endoresements of the good ones?

If not, can anyone recommend a good 'un in the Oxford/Aylesbury/Bicester area?

Thanks to Matt (slapmatt) I've been given details of Optima near Swindon (and Alternative Autos for parts). Just wondering if there is anywhere nearer to get a V6 cambelt change done for £200 labour.

AROC has a list - perhaps some kind member would be able to post the relevant section for you?

I know where there is one oxford, near the Cowley mini plant,
Palmer & Phillips, 25 Chiltern Business Centre, Garsington Road, Oxford, Oxfordshire OX4 6NG
01865749600, I got some parts from them for my Integrale, I think there labour rates are pretty reasonable.

I can't imagine anyone doing a Cambelt for £200 labour - it can take 12-16 hours!

I do them for £299 just for the belt (36K) or £499 including new pulleys and tensioner (72K).
