Costs vary but (from vague memory and at a very rough guess) it shouldn't cost more than £150 and many have had it done for less I think. Some peeps say to make sure they change the cambelt tensioner at the same time (so I would ask them to do that) but other peeps have I think said it is not an issue on Bongos. No doubt the experts will be along shortly to comment. 8)
