Mark - I think that most recent buyers of the water pump ex RockAuto have gone for the Beck/Arnley. It's been tried and tested in a few M100's without any problems.

I believe all brands on rockauto are good. I used Beck/Arnley and I can confirm that it is a quality product. Infact it might be better than the one it replaced. The blades on the one that came out of the engine are made of something like hard plastic where as they are made of a thick metal on the new one. I don't know if that old one is the original though...

Anyway Beck/Arnley, recommended.

I must say Rockauto seem extremely efficient. There were some out of stock items on my order and warnings of possible delays, but two days after ordering I've had an email to confirm everything is on its way.

Expect the parcels anytime soon then.

And a couple of days after that expect a telephone call and/or paperwork from Fedex saying that you owe them £££ import/customs/VAT charges :cry:

The Beck/Arnley is no longer stocked by RockAuto, so I went for the Bosch (similarly priced).

I'll see what I can find, but I don't have the pump - it's being shipped directly to Steve Williams for fitting.

What do you want Dave - just a general picture or the Bosch in particular? I've one in the loft that a muddy copper bought for me.

Well Steve Williams has told me that the order arrived over the last 3 days as 4 separate Fedex deliveries (one just contained two gaskets)! The email did tell me that the deliveries were coming from different warehouses.

N.B., the Bosch comes with gaskets as well. Just as well I'd ordered gaskets separately though, as the gasket with one of the Bosches was damaged.
