We finally got it recovered to Maypole Motors 1.7 miles away after some shenanigans, we eventually got the AA to do it for £106. You are right RobboMC they say it is the starter motor, but they have quoted £395 for this £240 for the part and their supplie is confused as there are 2 options related to amperages.
On eBay we found the part for £29, the seller says it was retrieved from a Trophy in 2001 said it would work, but clearly looking at the pictures there seems to be a manufacturer stamp 01-04-12, so we challenged that and the answer was not clear.

Sorry Rob I gave up on trying to sort this out myself as we have so many other issues....maybe I should have tried harder myself!
Any advice anyone? The car is now in the garage I told them I would check, they have scheduled in the 28th to do this work at 2 hours labour.
Help
