Any Recommended Shops In Cambridgeshire Area?

So I bought an 01 GS430 and its due for a timing belt.

Can anyone recommend a shop or person that does work on their spare time, I'd be more than willing to help?

Or does anyone know of a facility you can rent a bay and tools?

They had one where I lived in Canada for Military etc. It was awesome.

Some Lexus dealers are offering good discounts on TB replacements (£275.00) and it may be worth enquiring as it could be cheaper than a DIY job.

I ended up going with German Tech Cars Cambridge for the cam belt. I spoke with them on the phone and liked what I heard. I've been working on Hondas and Acuras for 10 years, half of which was at dealerships and we never replaced a timing belt idler pulley or tensioner pulley. Also some of the most experienced technicians I've worked with wouldn't suggest the waterpump unless it was leaking. As this was the first timing belt for my car I was only going to replace the pump if it was leaking; it wasn't. The guys at GTCC agreed and were more than ok with me having a look at the parts and they checked over the front and rear suspension free of charge. Came to a little under £300.

It sounds like you got a good deal there.
