Be carefull though from what I have heard the compatability is a bit hit and miss IIRC Mike P found this out when fitting a new one.

if it's a genuine bosch one (as the second auction one seems to be) you should be ok. the pattern 'intermotor' parts are duff - all the ones i've tried cut out at more than 2,500 rpm! :shock:

ive got an intermotor one on mine! never had issues with it though! but that said! one part seems to work on one car but not another with these cars!:D!
the genuine bosch ones are a better quality to feel though!

Some of them are the same, it depends whether the 8v lump has a dizzy or a coil pack. Not all though, I tried the wrong one with hilarious results.....flames! Big ones!!
