Thanks for your reply Simon, much appreciated!

The car has done 63k miles with a piece of paperwork from rovetec asking the owner if the belts had been done. With writing stating the belts had been done at 29k miles in approx 2015 looking at the mot history.

I was considering buying the timing belt kit from dmgrs
Which includes the belts and water pump and tensioner and idler I think.
There doesn't appear to be an issue as far the thermostat or housing go but was considering doing it while everything was easily accessible but if you recommend leaving it. Would you also leave the water pump alone and just change the belts and pulleys?

Thanks
Rob
