auxiliary belt

i have been on the eurocar parts website and I can only find the timing and drive belt?
The drive belt is £8.86 and the timing belt kit is £34.44

It's the drive belt you need. You will often find it referred to as the drive belt, the auxiliary belt, fan belt or in some American literature, the serpentine belt. They are all essentially the same thing, a belt which drives all the ancillary components such as water pump, air conditioning and alternator.

The timing belt (or, cambelt) is different. It drives the engine cams, and is much more complicated to replace.

sweet thanks mate :)
 
another question, when you guys change the timing belt do you just change the timing belt or use a timing belt kit and change the pullies etc too?
 
ford recommend 10 years or 100K miles, but i have read many people change at 60K miles, as they have been known to snap at that kind of milage???
 
do/should i change the waterpump as well when i change the timing belt? My focus has now just passed 60K miles
