Then we were both right Mickey as I was not thinking about UK specs. I usually don't pay too much attention to what the motor says anyway as long as it works as I don't over work my machines if I can help it. I haven't had the need yet to buy a new replacement motor so can't really say how good they are. I imagine there are good ones and not so good ones out there just like most other replacement parts for our vintage machines.
