The HP pumps are usually pretty much bulletproof Russel so you can pick up a good second hand one for peanuts.
Looked at a car that BMW had condemned the HP pump on & quoted a ridiculous amount to replace it and after a bit of investigation the problem turned out to be a blocked fuel line, so I hope the diagnosis is correct and the mechanic isn't wasting his time changing it. |

The first time my car would not start it was the Fuel sensor regulator thingy on the back of the HP pump, Could have been that

go to Lynhurst fire station, see if there is one in the yard at the back.
Ask around cos if it is still there, it was for sale. macafee2 |
