Let me guess- 'everso good car spares' and a picture of a Motoquip box? Yeah they sent me a Falcon one too. I looked at mine when it arrived and the quality seems ok, so you should be ok!

Yeah Falcon sounds good. Not so sure about Sparrow or Pigeon water pumps, as people have said they'd be shit. If you've got the cash though I'd get a Eagle water pump... 😀

Does Firstline stuff really have SKF bearings Chompy? SKF is good quality..

Motoquip always used to be Peugeot's OE supplier and there are Motoquip part nos on Peugeot Servicebox. I've never had a problem them.

I bought a first line pump for the Astra last week and it pissed water out everywhere.

Up until end of 2014, Motaquip was owned by the PSA Group (Citroen & Peugeot).
