parts?!

[loppy]

Evening, just a quick question in your opinion who is the best company to get parts from

Many thanks

Any that are near you - so you don't need to pay carriage! Brake parts and track rod ends etc are often best bought at your local Autoparts place - wear a grubby boiler suit/dirty hands and ask for a discount..... Some places offer free carriage if you buy above a certain level. Bull Motif/MOSS/DSN all have good reputation.

I've always had good service from ESM

Sod dressing up to buy spares.

It doesn't work anyway - the people on the desk arn't daft! If you buy a lot you get discount... if you don't they just tell you that you are getting one!

I still get staff prices at the motor factor where I used to work (I left 4 years ago) and I know the discount codes so I know im still getting them.

Minor Specialists tend to be cheaper than the factors now in my experience

i bought almost everthing from esm and had no problems, orders over 60 quid and placed on internet had free carriage and arrived the following day every time!

On the odd occasion when I've been dressed in rags they must've took pity on me and given a discount.

Good old ebay is good value aswell for many Morris minor parts.... esp some nice NEW OLD STOCK items...

Not recommended for female Minor owners though. Something slightly more 'tailored' than a boiler suit is advisable. Doesn't necessarily get you a discount but you tend to get to the front of the queue

Oh I don't know though - and as an avid watcher of Salvage Squad, I was always very impressed.

Thanks for all your thoughts have given ESM a try, fingers crossed!!!

I think you will find, the counter staff are quite often women now ;) I have been to 5 motor factors recently, there were women on the counter at 3 of them...

Are you sure you mean 'on' the counter??
I've not come across that at a car parts place, but it does happen at Jumping Jacks...
