Hi mate

I used the search function alot to try and find the best starter motor. I know alot of people say get a newer zetec one but the starter motor I use now is from a Ford Transit Connect.

Ive attached a link of where I bought mine from, as im local to him I went in with my old one, he didnt think I could fit this but after measuring it up he was surprised that it would fit.

Car starts alot easier with this one on!

Not all of them fit, I bought a focus 2.0 one and only two out of the three bolt holes line up..... seems to be holding on ok though lol
