Not sure how you achieved that unless you didn't do/need the water pump.  :-?

GM cambelt kit (belt, tensioner, rollers) is £100 at tc price.
Water pump is £25 ish
Aux belt (optional) £17
Anti freeze 5l £10

Oh and £270 to have a garage do it is quite a good price. I just hope the timed it up properly.
