Sorry if this has already been shown here ( mods please delete if so).

Would be nice if all engines were out of the car and as clean as this one!

The cambelt job per se is as easy as it looks in the video, with or without a car "wrapped". The pig part of the job is accessing the belts.
BTW, only the intake camshaft rear pulleys must be removed in order to replace the small belts.

Lates makes the KV6 cam belt change look very easy. Took about 3 hours including coffee breaks.
