Need a new fuel pump for my '85 SD1 Vitesse.
Rimmer Bros want £132.19 inc VAT, ex postage so about £142.00
total.

Looks like I can get a suitable pump from:-
http://www.onlineautomotive.co.uk/
For £94.88 inc VAT & postage. A saving of around £48.00.

I've never dealt with the Co before, but is there any reason why
I shouldn't buy from them? Poor reputation, quality of products
etc?
TIA.
Mike.

Is it anything like a Range Rover one?

Thanks for the interest Willy, but it's nothing like that one.
The Rover EFI one has the inlet pipe and two terminals one end,
and the outlet pipe at the other end.
Since my post I've bought a brand new OE one for £21.40, inc VAT
and P&P.
Well pleased.
Mike.
