Hi
We have come across a set of NOS (in old VW box) 30 horse b&ps.
Two are Mahle and have a VW logo on the inside, but the other two are Mahle and have no Vw logo. This lack of logo is as if they removev that bit from the tooling when VW stopped needing a supply of 30 horse parts. The two "old" NOS ones have a little surafce rust (nothing at all really) and the other ones have more indicating that until recently they were stored seperately. I suspect that the guy selling them had a VW box and two b&ps, then made up the numbers :wink:
So in conclsusion all four are NOS and made by Mahle, an OEM to VW, but two are obviously slightly later NOS ones.
The guy wants £250 and at first this seemed reasonable until we noticed that they were not a complete matching set.
You can buy these new from Status and the like for about £400 and I believe they are also made by Mahle.
Do people think that £250 is a fair price for these? I mean, when we first looked and thought they were a matching set they seemed a bit on the cheap side but now im not so sure. :? :lol:
Any ideas?
