That's a good price at £100 with the vat and postage.
I paid £105 plus vat from a place just up the road from me which is convenient when you want something the same day.

This again  :D

Nobody building motors in czech republic as far as i know ...
Perhaps you are thinking of Domel in Slovenia ...  Domels don't look like this  

Ametek has build houses in Mexico and Italy ...
Its either one or the other ...
Jackson spares has Italian Ameteks on ebay for £55 - 70
I think its in the interest of sellers to make this ' genuine ' and non 'genuine '  distinction so they can charge more  ...

Ah , you mean europart ...

Further bit of snooping ... and i think you are right ..
Ametek also lists production plants in
Mexico
Brazil
Two in Italy (Ametek italia)
and czech republic

That confuses whats from where nicely ..
Although all are really  ' Genuine ametek '

I stand corrected though  ;D
