How much is a cam-belt change on Citroen Xsara Picasso?

Depends entirely on the engine fitted.
They run from a 1.6 8V which should take less than 2 hours all in, through a 1.6 16V which takes extra time, and then the diesels are a little longer still due to the complexity of the installation and the physical size of the engine, with limited access. If it's not done, ask to knock £350 off the price, he will probably get it done as part of the deal, and that way you will get a 12 month parts and labour warranty on the cam belt job. If you get it done yourself, make sure you also get a 12 month warranty.

Don't worry about the cost....insist they change the belt as part of the purchase price
