Looks like the Lidl unit is also available badged as a Clarke unit:

Presumably this is technically equivalent too:

Us petrol owners still have to crawl under to do the oil filter...

I did buy from from Amazon. Although not the model you've linked, mine is exactly the same as the Lidl unit. Think I paid £23'ish. Amazons customer service came in handy when after 5 months my pump packed in (my fault, I did an hour long heater matrix flush cycle) and Amazon sent another unit free.
