Petrol filler flap broke off in normal use. Part looks so flimsy that I
will not have much confidence in its replacement.

Anyone know if this is a common failure or if there have been any
mods to strengthen this pathetically weak component?

Never had a problem in my Stilo and this is the first I've heard of any such
problem.

I would suggest you replace with confidence as it would appear that there
was some manufacturing weakness in you original filler flap.
