Has anyone looked into the cost of buying a motor direct from VR.. The new version? I am thinking if this motor goes... many miles down the road what do we do to replace it.

I know we have some VR connections on here. What would a new motor cost.

I am trying to remember who "VR" is, can you help me out?

Did you mean VM Motori?

I don't think you can buy directly from VM Italy, besides that shipping/importing is difficult.

Maybe send an email to http://www.vmmotori.it/en/vmna.jsp

Great idea to contact them directly.

Just so happens their distributor is local!!! Tampa FL. I have an email into him to find out if they fix the 2.8 and how much they run.

It will be so nice to have a shop to take it to that knows what they are doing.

They are exactly who this thread was targeting, I know they were on the DL for a long time. I was not sure if they are fully out in the open or not.
