Cambelt Change Costs

Hi,
I need the belt changing on my 2001 1360cc Xsara, and was wondering if anyone knew roughly what it's likely to cost.

It's a pain in the cold weather to do, so I was going to get a garage to do the belt, and I'll do the Oil / Filters / Plugs myself to save on that part of the 72k Service that will be due before Easter.

So, what should I pay? I'm thinking of going to a local garage, who won't rip me off. I'm assuming this "common" engine has nothing that will trouble the local garage.......

Advise please...
Stuart

Mk 1 Xsara 1.6 VTR = £65. Had two in two years same cost both times. Not a big job by all accounts on the single cam engine.
