They only stock kits for late XE's.
Even if you put the reg in for a car with an early XE, they still send out the belt/kit for a late XE.

I've used them a fair bit, mainly because there are always codes on the Internet for 20-25% off, never had any issues.

The dampers are made by Sachs. They made the original dampers for BMW. It's the same thing without the stamp.

Depends what you buy, you buy a decent wheel bearing, it's an OE brand, like SKF, whatever you think personally, that'll be the same as a Ford one.

Iv not seen any skf bearings or anything like that in there certainly not for a puma anyway. It's all cheap and nasty stuff. I also once bought some brake cylinders and they were wrong had a massive game getting them to admit they'd made a listing error

I had some wheel bearing for my m5 off them, went for the more expensive option, still 1/2 BMW trade price. Skf bearing arrives, inside the box is a bag with BMW on it and BMW part number etc.
I use ecp over any other factor round here.
Mind you it helps robin works at the local one!

Always use reserve and collect online. Never had a problem with their stuff but i suppose it's the same as anything really, there's always someone who's had a bad experience
