Hello Tone,

It may be worth trying a local motor factor too.

Hope you manage to find one otherwise you may have to buy from one of the European dealers.

Cheers

Steve

Andy, if you put the link on here or the item number it will be easier for Tone (and others looking for a starter) to find it. Thanks. Steve

This is probably too late to help anyone, I found a local auto-electrician via Google. He came out, took out the starter motor, re-built it and came back and put it back in. That cost me £120. In my case, this suited me as I had no spare time and I was, in fact, in Italy when he did the work! He's in West Sussex ..... can PM details if anyone needs them ...

Many thanks for all the help. I ended up buying the starter motor Andy drew my attention to and now, after the 'rubics cube' of a job taking out the old and replacing with new, I'm back on the road...HOORAH!!
