Lyon? Only if you get very very lost Stewart.
Just follow Tel, I believe he is prone to overshooting a turn-off. wink

You might be able to get duty free ones in Luxembourg this trip! We will actually be stopping there for more than 30 mins. cloud9

A bit of checking suggests these are probably genuine TRW parts. Same servo could be applied to LHD cars and may therefore be some stock found in France. Offering free P&P to UK mainland so a very good deal. Sellers feedback at 98.8 for large volume of sales isnt the best but analysis of feedback does suggest professional customer services where problems have arisen...all internet car part suppliers suffer from parts not matching registration number 100% of the time.
Lets have feedback when it arrives and then lets clear their stock!!!
(Mine is on SAAB servo, got almost the last one...and it cost me a lot more than that!)

Ok just received the brake booster and it looks to me like the genuine article, in a TRW box and looks to be from visual inspection a well made servo.

So is this servo a ford or Saab replacement. More over, will it fit my S3c?

Scroll down the Ebay ad and it lists various Fiesta's so my guess is maybe Ford?

Can I refer you to http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a... You need to read through the thread to get the full picture. The PSA328 is almost certainly right for your late car. The article will give you enough info to double check you have the Ford system.
I very much hope this new source proves very valuable to S owners.

There was a very slight question whether the servos for the equivalent LHD Fiesta cars were exactly the same (I was unable to confirm the operating rods were identical) but if it says PSA328 on a box coming from France that is the correct number and it looks like they were identical. thumbup

I just hope everyone restoring, or safeguarding, an S sees this before they all go. Maybe TVR Parts bought some??!!
