Where cheapest to buy parts for my car
Comments

5 litres of engine oil isn't going to be light so you're going to pay a few quid in postage. Have you got a local motor factors shop where you are?0

Well yes. That's something I haven't thought of !!!0

Good prices from there. But as already stated, i'd at least get the oil from a local shop.0 -

depending on which model you have
prices without oil0 -
If I were you I'd be putting a non brandname oil 15/40 oil in it.
In my experience you won't find that much diff on the spark plugs & filters unless you compare with Halfords (expensive),
If you said where you were, you might get someone with some local knowledge.0 -
Try these, I buy all my parts there-
www.eurocarparts.com , also enter code PASFRD25 for a further 25% off.
Just bought a load of bosch stuff mysen, including a bosch silver battery S5 for £75, £130 in Halfords!
For an oil change I get national tyres & auto to do it for me, 6l of Castrol Mag fully synthetic plus oil filter for £36. You'll do well to get 6l of that stuff anywhere for £36, plus you get the filter and somebody else does this rotten job for you!0 -

Yep I have just had two cars done one with edge and the other magnatec for a similar price, there was a 10% discount voucher recently.
I use a local motor factors for "top up" oil at same spec but probably half the price.
Worth trying for air filter, plugs and the common stuff too. If you know exactly what you want ebay has some good stuff too, wipers, air filters even branded brake pads:eek:."If you act like an illiterate man, your learning will never stop... Being uneducated, you have no fear of the future.".....

local car shop will be almost as cheap as the online prices, Add postage on and they should be cheaper.
Also a lot cheaper if they give you the wrong part.
Sending a part back because it doesnt fit, Will cost you more and possibly leave you without a car for several
days.Censorship Reigns Supreme in Troll City...0
