Where are people buying their water pumps from ? I want one for my 98XJR.

Am I right in thinking there was one with metal impellors which are supposed to be better ?
If you phone Jaguar, as a guide, they are saying theirs has plastic impellors.....

The earliest cars had a plastic impellor which broke up and caused problems. These were superceded by 1999 and the current offering is a polymer blade. Metal blade copies do exist from the Ford version of the engine but these are not as efficient so not advised.
