This link is to the forum section on spares. It may just be worth trying your local Renault garage as well. It's possible that they can get you one. If you've carried out a restoration and are going to keep the car, then don't mess about with a secondhand one. Best of luck.

Thanks Steve.
I have contacted your 'friendly agent ' and they are very helpful but at £170 a little steep. I have to persuade my client. I take your point re secondhand and concur.
Thanks

Is that £170 just for the vacuum unit? Almost fell off my chair!! I believe you can get a complete new Ducellier distributor from France for less than that!!

Hi Steve, Thanks for the reply. Bit heavy even though it is for a complete dist. This particular one has no listing for component parts apparently even though they may be the same they are not able to tell me so dealer option is a complete unit. Understandable but expensive and frustrating. It is a Ducellier525387 also ref R324C33 if it means anything to you or if you can let me have a French supplier link that would be great.

Hi David.
Thanks for that at least I can focus on finding one complete and stop wondering.
Cheers

Here is a direct link that may be of help and they look cheaper than buying one from Renault.
