Starter motor pricing

[Michael4]

There seems to be a big range of prices for t25 starter motors, £75 (free postage) from Ebay to, say, £130ish from Brickwerks.

Is there any difference in use or do you simply get what you pay for?

I'd get a second hand one myself

Stick an ad in the Wanted section - that’s how I got mine.

I’ve got a few used ones on Hayling

Bosch starters are infinitely repairable.
Unlike the cheap versions.
If you have the original Bosch starter then it can be completely repaired back to new.
Any alternator/starter repair shop can help.
Mine was repaired for £25.00
And is working well after several years

Bosch starters are infinitely repairable.

Got to be careful though, somebody I know took it to a Bosch official repairer and didn't stipulate how much he was prepared to spend, the bill was £180 if I remember.... he walked away and lost the starter.

Always state if it's more than say £50 then they must call for approval.
