I'd say a lot of indie garages wouldn't even know there's a 2nd belt buried behind a cover. Once it's done then the engine is fine for the next ~100k miles. If it's not done then make sure you haggle hard for a hefty discount to cover the cost.

Drives lovely. Ate up the miles from Cork to Mayo on the way home. Delighted with it tbh! Viva la Bangernomics!
W123-80's wrote: » Bangernomics update! The A6 passed the NCT first go this evening. I had it serviced last week and had 2 other issues sorted. Alternator pully belt and a front bushing. I've done almost 3k in it since I bought it. Eating up miles. The timing belt is due in the next month and it needs two front tyres soon. The Octavia was due a belt and a service when I sold it so I'm justifying the jobs due on the A6 that way! I would have been spending that maintenance money anyway. In saying all that it would have been nice to have picked up something that didn't need as many little jobs in the first couple of months. It's a lovely old car though, really comfortable, plenty of poke not that I'm a fast driver and looks fairly respectable. I'll keep it for approx 20k miles and weigh up my options then. Viva la Bangernomics!
