Spare car parts - Velez/Torre/Nerja areas

Postby Wilson25 » Tue Apr 08, 2008 11:09 am

Hubbie went to Renault garage yesterday and was horrified at price of a couple of parts he needs to repair car (won't even attempt to convey what's wrong). Should we be able to pick up spare parts at recambios? If so, can anyone point me in the right direction of some in our area? He went to the scrap place near Velez yesterday but no luck.

Thanks.
Karen

I have found recambios to be cheaper than main dealers but not much!

Two things to try apart from more scrap yards,

Join an Internet forum for your make of car. They know the best sources.

EBay UK. If you make an instant purchase it could be here in two days.
