While we may not check every single part that comes through our door, we do our research before we buy them in to make sure you’ll be getting some of the best quality car parts on the market. We check each and every supplier we use, making sure their products are made to highest manufacturing standards set by the leading automotive brands.

There are so many brands of car parts out there it can be hard to choose which ones to supply, this is why we do extensive market research and speak to our network of mechanics, garages and dealerships to find out which brands they prefer using and why. We trust these experts to know which brands are the real deal, helping us offer you the best range of car parts in Yorkshire and beyond.

GM AND OE QUALITY PARTS

When you're looking at car parts, you'll often hear the terms Genuine, Original Euipment, Aftermarket and OEM parts thrown around. If you're not familiar with these terms they can be a bit confusing, so we've broken down each term to try and make it easier for you to find the right parts for your vehicle.

When we're choosing brands to supply, we look for these terms as they let us know the parts have gone through rigorous testing and follow the highest manufacturing standards in the automotive industry.

When we call a part “Genuine” or say it’s a “GM Part” we mean it’s been manufactured by General Motors for their range of cars including Vauxhall, Chevrolet, Opel models. These parts are made directly in the General Motors factory, manufactured to their highest quality standards. These parts are fitted to Vauxhall Cars right out of the factory and come with a GM Logo embossed onto the part, so you know you’re getting the real deal. 

We’re proud to supply a full range of Genuine Vauxhall and Opel parts, available at a discounted price all year round. If you can’t find the part you’re looking for online, you can get in touch with one of our Parts Advisors who should be able to track down the part you need.

Our Original Equipment (OE) range of products come in appropriate branded  packaging right from the manufacturer. This means if you're buying an OE Vauxhall Part, it comes in Vauxhall packaging, the same applies for Audi, Honda, Seat, Toyota etc. The only difference is Vauxhall (and other brands) have outsourced the production of these parts to industry experts like Bosch, Hella, NGK and Delphi. These parts and components are the same ones your car will come off the production line with, so you know the quality of these parts are assured by your car's original manufacturer.

Our range of OE Parts come in Genuine Packaging and are normally supplied with a 12 Month Warranty, so you can buy with confidence. The length of these warranties can vary, so you should check each individual product for it’s specific warranty.

These OEM parts are made by the brands mentioned above, like Denso, Bosch, NGK, Delphi, and have been approved by automotive manufacturers for use on their vehicles. The only difference is that they are supplied in the manufacturers branding, so instead of Audi Packaging on your Filters you might get WIX Packaging.

If you choose to buy from our OEM range you’ll keep your vehicle’s structural integrity to OE standards. The added bonus is that you’ll save some money when compared to buying the OE branded parts, what’s not to like?

Our Aftermarket range is the more budget friendly option we supply, they’re manufactured by independent companies who have no relation to Automotive Manufacturers or OEM Brands. This doesn’t mean they’re inferior in quality, these brands are still world leaders in their field with years of experience and high standards.

Our Aftermarket range includes reputable brands like Automega, Trupart, BM Catalysts, Blue Print and more. Most of these brands come with a 12 month warranty, some of them offer longer warranties than our GM ranges!

If you’re looking for a more competitive price and longer warranty, our Aftermarket range should have something for you. You can browse our website or call one of our Parts Advisors to get started, we’re always happy to help.

The main reason we know the parts we sell are good quality, is that we use them ourselves. Every member of our team cares for their cars, so we only want to use the best quality parts on them. If you looked under the bonnets of our cars you’d find the same parts that we keep in stock being used. If you can’t trust the suppliers, you can trust us.
