Hi all, I rang my local Vx garage (Evans Halshaw) earlier this week for a price for a water pump for my 3.0 V6 and they quoted me £119 + VAT!!!! I suggested that they had mis-quoted me but they told me it is now a dis-continued part and that is why it was so expensive.

Where else should I go/enquire for a quality water pump?

TIA

Got one on TC for £60 (prior to that only paid about £23 on TC)

Get a QH one from a factors or from bestpartsby buypartsby whoops

Look here - http://www.buypartsby.co.uk/water-pump-make.php  Part Number : QCP3255
 Cost : £25.79 + vat

Discontinued part.  What were they smoking. Idiots.

Price sounds right, as they have jumped in price, even around £60 on TC now.

Yes, trade club price tripled this year....which is a disgrace.

So, I now buy QH or contitech from factors for the 20-30 quid mark

Thanks everyone for the sound advice once again.

Now I know why we call them Vx stealers!
