searching Parts in UK

Beitrag von t-rocco »

Hi I am looking for Part shops (WEB) in UK,
The local VW Dealer is a little bit expensive...!
Are there any dealer around Bristol or Oxford?
I am looking for engine parts mainly.

Thanks a lot

Depends on what parts exactly you're after.

There's GSF (German Swedish French) and Euro Car Parts in the UK, which have branches in most major cities, for more info:

http://www.gsfcarparts.com
http://www.eurocarparts.com

GSF have branches in Cheltenham, Bristol, Swindon, then further up north Leamington, Daventry, Coventry, Birmingham, to name a few, none in Oxford.

Eurocarparts have a branch in Reading, Bristol, Swindon, Slough, none in Oxford.

More web-based companies are listed here: http://www.roccoland.plus.com/sciroccow ... tsdiscount

With some parts I would, however, pay the premium of getting genuine VW parts. Candidates include things like radiators, bearings etc. unless the non-VW supplier can assure you that you're buying a branded (not made in China crap) part.

Still gotta meet up. How about a meet in the Midlands upcoming Sunday, details here: http://the-corrado.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=64346. My mate Chris from Trowbridge (just around the corner from Bradford) will be staying at my place for the whole weekend for some :bier: , tinkering on aanother mate's Corrado etc. :-)
