Wheres the best place for service parts? Ebay is useless, Vauxhall is a rip off and the local motor factors can never get the parts right. Ive searched google and places like LMF and autovaux seem to either not have it in stock or just not list it.

I need:
Cambelt kit
Water pump
Rocker gasket
Oil
Oil filter
Fuel filter
Spark plugs
Lower manifold gasket (appears to be 2 different ones that i need. a rubber one and then a flat one)
Inlet to head gasket
HT leads

My cars in need of a good service and im changing a few parts that why i need all of the above. Im after good quality at a cheap price.

Cheers mate. I had a look on there and it looked pretty cheap but ive never heard of any of the makes so was a bit dubious about the quality.

If you click more details it gives you a part manufacturer and none of them are GM/Opel. Theres a few Bosch parts but they arent any cheaper than else where.

Taken from there site

Q/ Are your parts Genuine Vauxhall?

Some of the parts we stock and supply come directly from General Motors (Vauxhall). Most of the parts we stock have come directly from the manufacturer (ie: Bosch, ACDelco, Febi Bilstein, etc).

Ohhhh so thats why they are so cheap because they basically cut out Vauxhall as the middle man?

Autovaux/LMF are worth calling.
