Thanks, Clan looks like it will be hard to know the age of my replacement. That serial number S10246510 looks odd to me as the original was 545071 the engine looks the same and seems to perform but I did notice the aluminium looks a bit more aged than the original. The donor garage could or would not supply me with any history but all the belts, pullies, tensioners A/C Compressor .fluids etc, were all renewed and as I said seems to go ok and just passed the new MOT. I'll have to live with it and hope there's no problem with any differences in for future regarding spare parts.
