It seems (from my quick Google) to be a jump from ~40 to ~100 quid
though?

but just thought I'd mention, that I changed
the pump on my system a couple of time before the penny dropped that the
problem was, that the shaft was horizontal ! Since mounting it at 45
degree, the most I could manage, it's run now for quite a few years with
no further failures.

Oooerr. I think I read somewhere that the shaft *should* be
horizontal?

As it happens the one I'm looking to change certainly is and it could
be the original, as is Mums (Grundfos)?
