Where is the best place for cheap car parts?

Hi there,

Can anyone recommend a good place to get car parts at decent prices? (specifically for a VW Polo). My Dad gave me a catalog, but I've heard about car parts supermarkets - are they a better deal?

Are there any really good online sites anyone else uses?

Any guidance hugely appreciated!!

Thanks,

F.

    Google 'GSF Car Parts', they are pretty cheap and 'BuyPartsBy' which can be cheaper for some items.

    Happiness is buying an item and then not checking its price after a month to discover it was reduced further.

    GSF for new parts, scrapyard/ebay for used parts.

    I don't think there are any car parts supermarkets.
