Default buggered starter motor

well as suspected my starter gave up the ghost, took it off today with it all wired in and tried to turn the car over - nothing!

in work now and no doubt subaru will be shut so just wondering - do they do re-con/exhange starters or just new, and how much? its a 99 classic

no worries mate.

also if you only spend £20-30 on a second starter motor and it only lasts 30,000 miles... so what.. was only 20-30 quid.
