Just been into my local Halfords - Bought for late model Minors genuine Lucas rotor arms and distributor caps for 50p and £1.08 each respectively.
Don't know how quality compares to pattern parts but it must be worth getting at least a couple of each at that price! That's what I did.

Whaaaat!! I have just bought a set for mine at the regular price (typical!).

Does this mean that they are discontinuing the line, like they did with the Champion spin-on oil filters? or is it a special offer?

Sod's law Cam!
The display was just marked "special offers" but included a full range Lucas parts.
Late model Minor Lucas coils are just over £16 , condensers £5 and a bit, one piece points £3 something. These prices are more than Minor parts specialists but are of course Lucas. The condenser price seems a bit excessive! Although higher prices are crossed out, and this can usually be taken with a pinch of salt, I don't know what was being asked before for these particular items.
