Title: VX parts Where to get?
Post by: Growler on 26 May 2008, 19:55:51

I know the title seems a bit...daft but other than a Vauxhall dealer can you get parts elsewhere? I'm thinking original parts.

Err, nowhere really.  Obviously, common service parts are available on the pattern part market, but dealers pretty much have exclusive access to genuine parts.

Places like Autovaux used to do a lot of genuine parts at good money, but lately seem to be sending out lower quality parts made by the same OEM.

Join ABS (Autobahnstormers) to get a "Trade Card", cost is £20 for 12 months, including issuses of there magazine, the TC will give you good savings at Vauxhall dealers for consumables ie 5litre 10/40 semi at £9, v6 oil filters £1.11, plus many other good reductions on vauxhall items.  ;) ;)
