The spring mechanism in the buffer stops can fail. The original contributor found that ordering online from a BMW dealer in the US cost less than ordering from Scuderia with shipping.
Catalogue research, 14 September 2026: BMW 51248187291 is a boot buffer stop with ejector. Both AstonDIY entries contain identical cross-reference numbers; Aston Martin interchange remains a contributor report.
