Car Parts??

OUT OF HOURS BULLY'S TRUCKSTOP BAR (INTERACTIVE)
1

I need some pads and discs for the car just wondered if any of you had used websites for car parts and had any recommendations of good or cheap websites?.

2

what car is it jammy ?

i normally use andrew paige or partco for brake bits , if they are down your way that is.
hope this helps

Don’t assume the cheapest place is always on the web. I looked for discs and pads for a Sierra,found my local independant shop beat the best I found on the net by at least a tenner overall.

Just a thought…

I use GSF for my Pug 205. They seem to be cheaper than Andrew Page for most stuff. See http://www.gsfcarparts.com/. Never tried mail order though as there’s a branch localish to me so I tend to go in person.

One place to try that a lot of folk don’t is Halfords… Don’t laugh, I get the stoppers for my Rangie there and they work well. :smiley: I can’t remeber how much they were, but they certainly weren’t expensive… Unlike the brakes for Madame’s Pug 205… £160 a pair!!! :cry: OUCH!!! Mind you, they were Pagid “Blues” designed for racing… We now use Ferrodo 3000’s… about 1/3 the price!! :slight_smile: The pug, BTW, is a pure track car pushing out 188Bhp at the wheels in something that weighs less than a ■■■ packet… OOOOOOOOOOH! It’s FUN!

Is there anyone else out there that indulges in the (very!) expensive hobby of track-days? It’d be interesting to find out. Get enough together and all meet up one day at the track :smiling_imp: :smiling_imp: :smiling_imp:

I use Halfords for some bike bits, oils filters, brake pads and plugs etc.

I also do trackdays, but on 2 wheels :smiley: Cars and Bikes dont mix, well not unless you at the “Ring”

Im a member of Donington Park Supporters club, and they allow track testing like this, its not a track day though, more like a sunday drive :wink:

I have been to Mallory for the plum pudding races and they have cars and bikes for that in seperate sessions. It helps to clear the snow :stuck_out_tongue:
