Hi just been to local garages to get prices and got quoted £200 for a belt change, tensionour and water pump. Also he was saying about some fluid they put in somewhere. Is it worth it £200
My car has done 65,000 miles now and im not sure if the belt has been changed before of not

Some fluid will be the coolant 
If it includes parts, I don't think it's a bad price tbh. Phone around and get some more quotes for comparison though.

If that's parts and labour then yes that's a good price, all so get it done as your not sure if has been done in the past.

Sounds about right, I paid £135 for just the labour.
