btw my dad had the cambelt changed when he owned the car not sure if the tensioners were changed also is it advisable to change the aux belt tensioner?

i work for Volvo, not Peugeot unfortunaltley, my dad has the honor of working for them

the aux belt tensioner only needs to be changed when you get a nasty high pitched squeal
the cambelt tensioner should have been changed when the belt was done, do you have the invoice for the work, if so is there something on it called a 'motor kit'

£1,300 was prob about right when you bought it, doubt you'd get much more than £1k now.

Mines a 2001 and I have mine in papers for £2,400. Its also been "sold" twice on ebay for £2,000 and £1,800.
