Interestingly I asked my local independent (owner is ex-Fontain I believe) the other day for a price on this for my FL S8 which has a lack of documentary evidence in this area.
It did NOT include an oil/filter change (which I think the Fontain quote did) and came to over £1000 - nearly £1100 IIRC.
That was using genuine Audi parts and doing all the ancillaries (water pump etc.) - they showed me the list of parts and it was quite long.
Labour was only about 25% of the job (their rates are a bit less than Fontain) so the figures above all seem fairly consistent.
The actual cam belt itself was quite cheap.
Fontain have done a fair bit on my old car over the years so I might go to them as well for a quote and try to haggle with Sunny - he "owes me one" as I'll remind him at the time.
I'm thinking of having a gearbox fluid/filter change at the same time so it'll be a sizeable bill in the end wherever I go.
