They are FW2 wiper motors and the seller has got the wrong place for Bartrams, they are in Accrington on the road to Clayton le Moors, they used to look after my land rover for the PO

Ebay used to have one of the "report item" options as price gouging - admittedly I have never used it for a land rover part but it was useful a times in lockdown. unfortunately report doesn't seem to be working now.

C is next to F on the keyboard - more so if you have fat fingers.

I think i've got about half a dozen wiper motors in the workshop, including a couple of them still in an original Lucas cardboard "Replacement Service Part" box that someone left on the end of my drive for me (free) when he saw I had a S2.

Maybe it's time I paid off the mortgage  :wine3

Remember that stoopid prices doesn't mean they'll actually sell!

For anyone that's struggling with wiper motors, I've given the Chinese offerings a go, and so far so good, i'm happy with them.

Available from various retailers under part RTC3866 for about £20 each, even if they only last a few years, you'll still be in pocket compared to even cheap genuine motors.

Obviously this approach isn't for the purist, but if you're only interested in functionality, it's a quick and cheap solution compared to a single motor set-up.
