Thank you George at Villiers

Post by pdb »

My old coil on my ‘58-59 102 went south and George at www.villiersparts.co.uk did a great job refurbishing it. It now looks like new. Service was quick and reasonably priced.

Highly recommended.

Hi Pete, do you mind sharing current cost (ex shipping) for the rewinding service at Villiers?

Always a useful option to consider, there are plenty of seagulls out there waiting for a new coil!

Thanks

Andrew,

Here are the prices. Postage is extra.

new coil £65 (baseplate also cleaned up completely and new wire to points)
points £12.00 (if needed )
ign lead £9.95 (if needed)

My coil was totally shot. I should be good for another half century.

Many thanks. Pleasantly surprised at £65 for the winding!

George sells coils that are new manufacture I believe, so far better that a NOS item that might be full of green mush lurking under the cover!
