MG MGA - Mga master cylinder

Hi, l need to replace my mga master cylinder but am not sure which type to order. Prices seem to range from £65 to £155 that is a wide range. Is there any general guidance to be had on where to position ones pocket amongst the various suppliers?

.thanks JohnCole

I got mine from Bob West a while back. Made by A P Caparo.

I believe it was using the original Lockheed tooling but but machined to much finer tolerances. Better than any others I have experienced and recommended by others.

If you have discs on the front, dont get tempted with the cheaper TRW master cylinder. You will find lots in the archive on master cylinders not releasing.
In my opinion, with discs, AP Caparo as recommended by Steve is definitely the way to go.
