Source for new/reconditioned motor?

Miele are supposed to be a top brand/manufacturer do they not supply
spares? Or an in home service division? If it was a Dyson I think the
fixed fee =A365 service charge covers replacement motor. ducks

I'm getting conflicting advice from Miele. The Spares Dept says it's
a brushless motor and a replacement motor costs £146 plus VAT;
however their "Pearl Service" (as shown on the website) will repair
anything that's wrong with it for £69.50. The "Customer Service" bod,
on the other hand, said it needed to be looked at (for a £60 estimate
charge) and, if it turned out to be a faulty motor, would be declared
"uneconomical for repair".
