They tell me that the new compressor was identical to the original unit and just bolted straight on -with all necessary fittings and a new relay included.

The old pump had obviously been tired for a long while - the car has never adjusted levels this quickly in my ownership (a little over 3 years). With that plus other work I've had done recently (cambelt, control arms + a few other bits) she's driving like a new car again. Not too shabby for a 14 year-old car. Well pleased.
Glad to hear it.

Can't really grumble with the price of that compressor, can you. I too have heard good things about BagpipingAndy, but for convenience and peace of mind the Aerosus seems a bargain.
