Ford Focus 1.8 TDDI - Place to get a Cambelt Changed - duckbot1

I am currently looking for somewhere in Stockport/Manchester to get a Timing Belt, Aux Drive Belt and Waterpump replaced on a Ford Focus 1.8 TDDI.

I phoned up Polar Ford and was quote just over £600. This is a lot of money although if it is better I go to Ford then so be it.

Can anyone recommend a local independant in the Stockport or Manchester area (Tameside way)? I am a bit weary due to the nature of the job involved.

Car is on 91000 miles now, it had it's belt replaced at 47000 miles by the previous owner in 2006.

Thanks for any suggestions provided.
