They are both perfectly good makes, however I would go for the Valeo, tends to have the better name and supply lots of OE parts to Citroen, Sam

i prefer Valeo also, they usual make for a lighter clutch pedal action/feel IMO

SACHS, LUK and VALEO are bedfellows, you may find when buying a genuine kit or flywheel
they could be marked with any of the three or all three in the same box even two makers on the one part!

i dont know how true this is as i find SACHS clutch's quite heavy in operation/pedal feel
