New starter motor is in. It has never cranked so fast since I've had it. Problem solved.

Is your new starter the same brand? Or something different? Expensive?

I made some local enquiries and prices varied from $600 to $1600 for a replacement. I then had a look online and got a new starter on ebay from Melbourne for $200

Not sure of the brand, but it works fine and I will look to repair the old starter for a back up.

Uh-oh..The brand is listed as 'Trump. I wouldn't rely on that starter too much. You may think it's there to start your engine patriotically, but it's really there to sow discord between the glow plugs and the injectors, all the while stealing everything it can and smuggling it away to secret Russian bank accounts;)
