Title: a quick tip for CHEAP parts.
Post by: joesgti on July 06, 2009, 10:52:31 am

If your after a part for your car and dont want to pay retail, and it doesnt matter if its used then type 'breaking mk5 golf' into ebay UK and you will see lots of cars with lots of spares. this is how i got my R32 rear bumper for less than £100. also theres that many that you can play them off aginst each other, as some of you may know (matt  :laugh: ) that my bonnet catch was broken, so i called up VW and it was £70  :surprised: FOOK THAT! so sent a breaker an email and the first said £30 so i asked another and managed to get it down to £10 delivered!! BARGIN!

Hope this tip comes in handy for some of you in future!  :smiley:

Just don't try vaudi recycling solutions in Northampton, for some small bits they wanted over £300!
