Guys and girls

It's time for a service and to change the cam belt. I'm wondering how difficult the cam belt change is to do at home, and whether I should be thinking of changing the waterpump at the same time ?? The car is a '96 UK model and has 93k on the clock.

I've only done one other cam belt before, on a four cylinder, but as a novice that only took me a couple of hours.

So far we've paid for servicing, but apart from getting the damn undertray off how difficult can it be ??

So do I change the belt on my driveway ?? Do I pay someone to do it with the service ?? Do I change the water pump as well, or "if it ain't broke don't mess with it" ??

What are your thoughts ??
