I did once read that you could pay a good few quid for the distributor cap for a Silver Shadow or save yourself a fair wedge and ask for one for a Daimler V8 250 which was exactly the same part.But why so much conflicting information for the Omega,cam belt kits/oil coolers etc.?

It's for all the people who think things like the different flanges on thermostats or waterpumps are unacceptable 'problems'

Same for a lot of models - for recent Jags check Ford prices eg Ford price for rear parking sensors significantly less than same Jag parts.

There are three prices because there are actually three slight variations to the kit.
