Thread: Suggestions for good parts place in the UK

I’ve used them all. I like RimmerBros - they’re cheap for small items as they will do small Royal Mail post packs with cheap freight. They also do reasonably priced large postage.

I also use Advanced Factors a lot. Good for specialty items and usually reasonable freight. I’ve also used LR Direct before.

I’ve used Island4x4 infrequently. They’ve had two things I’ve wanted over the years.

Really I price match them all including freight and go with that.

PM me your VIN and the part number you're after and I'll make a few calls.

just be aware anything from the uk could take between 2 weeks and 3 months atm

Worth checking which courier your chosen UK suppliers use, I have had success with UPS and DHL, 2 weeks max but more expensive and watch for the surcharges, but Royal Mail / Auspost has been a month or more.

LR here in Oz are charging $1400 for the panel, used to be $500 but now is apparently an upgraded part whatever that means and has a stupid price.

Any suggestions for a LR parts dealer that you guys here have used and are happy with would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers
