Actually John, the motor you see in the picture might look like a washing machine motor, but it is in fact far from it.
That is a rather expensive fully enclosed motor with bearing lube points and mounted on a bracket that has resilient rubber mounts surrounding the motor ball races.
If they were mounted into washing machines over here, it would most probably be cheaper to buy a new washing machine, take the motor out and then throw the rest down the tip.
But unfortunately, the type of motors we get here mounted into white goods are a lot less desireable. Fully open windings, just the place for swarf to settle into.
