Thread: getting parts from the uk

so far I have searched craddocks paddocks and lr direct and they are all good and bad in there own way. I see on lr direct you have the option of picking the make and i was wondering what is the difference between allmakes britpart and bearmach?

We used to call Britpart Sh*tpart in the U.K. enough said. Bearmach stuff is good quality.

If you have a choice, go LR branded first, then OEM, then Bearmach, then Allmakes, then (and only if you have a barge pole) Britpart.

I bought several consignments of parts from the UK when I was rebuilding my D1. I had a few parts that broke as they were installed. Guess what brand they were?

i see there is normally bugger all difference in price between britpart allmakes and bearmach sometimes so that is good if bearmach is ok. I would go land rover when the price is close but sometimes it cost about 3 times the price of bearmach and I can not justify the price.
As we all know the main problem is the freight well I just looked at postage that would cost around 100 pounds here would only cost 18 pounds to where I would live inn sweden so guess what I am bringing back with me

Can anyone else suggest somewhere to get series 1 parts besides ebay and craddocks(they seem very expensive)

gumtree sometimes has some parts...

ad is a bit old, but seller may have more, possibly still wrecking etc

Landrover Series 1 | Engine, Engine Parts & Transmission | Gumtree Australia Cairns City - Parramatta Park

Thanks for the link but a little too far away

don't forget the aulro courier service...not that it's 'mine' to offer.
