which timing belt?

with centre idler, or without

Do I need one?

Probably better to have one and not need it, than not and find you do..!

indeed. but as they're offering a kit without it, it would suggest that it's not always necessary.

The preventative maintainers among us would get the kit with the idler. If you're still not sure, remove the cam covers and check the condition of the one thats currently in place.

best to get it..

I remember I had the option as well when I got my timingbelt last.. I figure it's best to change the whole shabang while you're at it anyways..

How's your waterpump looking?

Yeah Peace of mind for another while is worth more than 35snots I think..
