Default marelli replacement rotor

Who sells a decent replacement these days? I can only find them on Ebay and Terry's Jag.

Don't take mine as the final word but I think there's only one outfit making these rotors nowadays so it really won't matter who you buy from. They'll all be selling the same part....perhaps with different labels or packaging.

Let's wait for others to chime in, though

Cheers

Good!

Out of curiosity I spent a few minutes searching and several sites show it as "Not available" or no longer even offer it. SNG Barrat, Autohauz, Rock Auto, FCP Euro, etc

If I had a Marelli car I think I'd be scrambling to get a spare

Cheers

Not all v12s are created equal.
You might have been looking at one for the Lucas system.
For as long as I had my Marelli fitted v12 they were over $100.
That was just for the cap, rotor and gasket sold separately.
