Ebay Rip-off

After reading Newterry's post about his Harmony clutch, I typed "Peugot Boxer Clutch" into ebay. (as you do)
The 4th and 6th items to be listed were both clutch pedals, the first @ £22.99 + £2 p+p the second one was £30.64 with "free" postage.

I've been carrying a spare pedal around with me for quite a while now as they are made of plastic and are notorious for breaking.

Mine cost £9 + VAT at the Pug dealers.

Used to run a fleet of Mercs back in the day..........Look at these plastic clutch pedals.....they won't last five minutes.....better keep a couple of spares in stock.

Last vehicle scrapped after 20 years operation (bus work)

Still had a couple of clutch pedals in stock!!!!!!!!!!!!

Everyone proved wrong!

I'm speaking from experience PB I've had one go on me (thought it was the cable at first)Then I found out it was a common problem so I bought two. When I asked the Pug storeman if they had any in stock, he replied that they always keep a good stock of them as they sell a lot.

As an aside, I also found that a genuine (mines a Citroen) cable is easier to fit and a lot smoother in operation than a pattern (QH) one.

On the subject of Ebay Rip Offs, Paul and others have seen so called AutoSleeper Vans on ebay and alerted us. AutoSleepers are also aware and are in the throws of taking action on this matter
