Im worried now cos the garage quoted me £150 so i got on the phone to the seller and he said ill give you half towards it etc so i said yes and im picking up today
Update:
Just spoke to the garage the guy reckoned the cambelt had been done with and it hasnt been done.
The guy has offered to meet me halfway with the cost of the cambelt repair which is not bad I guess.

Cheers guys, Ill try a few mentioned above.
Also whilst Im on it, very off topic but with a 172 when would you expect belts to have been changed I thought it was when the car is either 5 years old or 70k mileage??
Yes another thread on inssurance. Apologies in advance.
Basically been looking at 182/172's and getting various quotes. Ive tried all the compare websites and also direct line and the cheapest I get is £620, which isnt too bad considering.
However, I just wanted to absolutely check and make...
Re: Mass NY & NW meet Saturday 30th Jan!!
Thanks for the heads up Naith.
Tis looking like a NW meet atm but then that'l be due to there not being many NY active members which was why I suggested this idea in the first place.
Re: Mass NY & NW meet Saturday 30th Jan!!
Doesnt seem to be much NY interest to do it halfway Claire, would be a nice drive over there anyways. The last mass meet we had was pretty close to Manc iirc.
Yeh can do chick
