I have an invoice from Armoto dated 17/03/2020 for £156 including VAT

A pair of new bearings was an extra £20.

I have used R&F. Very good with prices to match. Expect a long wait; they had a huge backlog. I'd use them again for something rare or complex. For standard Lucas there is much more choice.

I've used Armoto a few times. What's happened to the starter I've not come across one needing rewinding?

That is an interesting question. This morning I was at Hereford Auto Electrics. He mentioned that the only time he’s encountered a starter that actually needed a full rewinding was when someone bought one in, saying that to clean it up before repair they’d had it sandblasted. It needed a very great deal of repair indeed!
