i got my belt and tensioners done from my local garage for 320 i think.

 

[Fred@BTM]

please please please please please please PLEASE!!!!

whatever you do make sure the garage doing the work has the right tools (this goes for all 172/182/1.4 16V/1.6 16V owners, same tools required)

for a FF 172/182 the parts alone come to about £270 (retail)
