Go on son, big yourself up. Let me guess, you and Pete will charge much less, but folk must take into account how much parts have gone up.

Not a promising start.

The forum mantra is: Use genuine Vx parts.

[Darth Loo-knee]

What are you like?

Anyone that has had any work by me has had genuine parts fitted at an excellent price.
But the price is gonna have to go up slightly with the price of parts going stupid

They've gone bust. They were too cheap.

[albitz]

One last huge rip off before they all go bust.......hopefully.

Daz you could always use non- genuine they are as good as. I have sold a cambelt kit, water pump myself to a member on here and the car is still going. I put a contitech cambelt kit and waterpump on mine and it's still fine. Always best to shop around for the parts as seeing as they are getting expensive. Iirc the cambelt kit I sold for the V6 (prefacelift) last year was £75 and the water pump was £25 and that was staff price.

Kinell! They went bust before you hoped they would. Spooky.

[Darth Loo-knee]

To be honest Myself & Pete were talking about this the other day.
We have only ever fitted Genuine Vauxhall Cambelt & Tensioners and Water Pumps. But with the price of parts going silly we have now got two prices.
One price if Genuine Parts are still wanting to be used.
Another Price for Contitec/Gates Parts used.

People have then got the choice of two prices

That's 'Pete and me'. Always put the counterparty first and never refer to yourself as myself.
