LOWER Crank pulley KV6 LHG000070

Jules · 4th March 2011, 17:27

Shock horror!!
Last time we fitted one of these torsional damper pulleys LHG000070 they were £36

Now look at the price http://www.rimmerbros.co.uk/Item--i-LHG000070
Over £300!!
Wish I'd bought 10 at the time.

If anyone knows of some old stock somewhere, let me know.
Some of the older KV6 are starting to look perished so I thought I'd keep one in stock but not at that price.

The diesel pulleys used to the the dearest now the tables have turned

Whew a bit naughty that Jules , think I'd sooner spend 300 sovs on a scrapper and have other spares as well, for that sort of money.

Groover.

Rimmers are becoming more and more greedy sadly.

I wouldn't blame Rimmers, you'll probably find they are Xpart dictating the price.

Every month a new EPC comes out and the prices are adjusted accordingly.

Correct. Our prices for genuine MG Rover parts reflect the rrp charged by XPart. If the earlier poster can please provide an example of where our price for the genuine part is not in line with XPart please let us know so we can have a look.

LHG000070 does indeed now have a rrp from XPart of £279.53 ex VAT

Checked with my local garage, best they can do is £307 +vat...
