That is very cheap. Suspiciously cheap.

There is a saying : you get what you pay for.

There is another saying : cheap for a reason.

It's cheap because it's remanufactured not new with manufacturer's, importer's and dealer's markup on it.

dual-mass.co.uk is the UK version of a german website zwiemassen.de which is operated by;-

Gloob GmbH

13053 Berlin

Germany

Interestingly-if you look through their photo gallery the new clutch friction plates shown are branded LUK germany.

No reason why a DMF should be thrown in the bin - why not remanufacture it like this company does?

Looking at what they do, it looks like they know what they are doing.
