Starter motor faulty on my Citreon Xsara LX 2.0 HDi

The starter motor or solenoid has become faulty on my car, and I cannot start it, when I turn the keys in the ignition, it just goes click!

So I’ve been out this morning with a mirror and digital camera, trying to work out what the model number is!

and it’s typical the label’s burnt through that must have been where the smoke came from. But I think it’s M001T80481!
