Camskill offer a belts pack all three belts plus a tensioner for timing belt (on special offer at present); for GR/GX £75 or €107; for GPX/GPvR £100 or €142.

A couple of points to note: the power steering & a/c belts are readily available in Ireland. The timing belt for non-mivec V6's is stocked by the Irish distributor, so available within a few days. The timing belt for the Mivec engine cars, is non-standard (according to Gates themselves). Hence the higher price. It is not stocked by the Irish distributor, but is available on order...longer delivery approximately 2 weeks.

Note Camskill Euro prices are subject to exchange rate fluctuations, also camskill prices do not include delivery.

Yeah - Bought the 3 belts from Camskill before I even picked up the FTO - pretty much a must have if you've just imported an FTO. The camskill pack I bought also included an upgraded tensioner for the timing belt. Really good service too - couple of days delivery time.

MfFTO,
Do camskill provide a proper invoice? i.e. something official looking that details parts and prices, etc. Just asking because I got some stuff from funky product a while back and never got an invoice, not important because it was mostly cosmetic stuff, but if I was buying something like a timing belt I'd like an official looking document to put with the service history.
Do you recall the approximate postage cost? I believe carriage from the UK can be pricey.

Yip - A pretty comprehensive invoice detailing all parts and costs - I will have to look it up later with regard to delivery charges - I don't think it amounted to much - And I got 2 oil filters/ITG Filter (big box)/Green Stuff pads / Belt Kit & tensioner and 6 Iridium plugs and head gasket - so a pretty big parcel arrived via courier. Funky product also used a courier for the Top Mix front skirt and some other bits and bobs recently - I'll check to see what I got charged for that.

Yeah - Its important to keep hold of all documents for when you sell the FTO - I have spent some big bucks over the past few months - It should help shift the car when I buy that facelift VersionR. (Do you take trade-ins Mivec??)

FYI, Camskill will also stick it in the post (insured) as opposed to using a courier, it works out a good bit cheaper if you're not in a hurry.
