Is it 150 for the parts + (plus) some extra for labour? May run into 4-500 
in total...
Or is it 150 incl. labour? More than reasonable. Go for it.

Â£150 for parts and labour sounds very good. On my Fiat 1.9 JTD parts 
alone are Â£108 + VAT from main dealer.
It's usual to replace the tensioner as well.
