Default who to order parts from ?

I need to order a crank position sensor, some coil gaskets and a couple coil boots, but I'm not sure who to order from. Who is honest, quick and not over priced? I was all set to order from parts geek, but then I saw some bad reviews. Who do you guys recommend? I would like to order this week so I can do the work next weekend. I have dealt with Paul's Jag in Florida and they were great , but their website doesn't have a parts catalog. Thanks Scott

I've ordered from Nally Jaguar in Atlanta and have been happy with their service, prices, and honesty. Look for their thread here in the vendor's section. Mention you're a member here and get 15% off.

Thanks guys----I think shipping from the UK would probably add a little cost to the parts, though I would go that route for a hard to find item--like the headlight switch I have been looking for----I will check out Nally out of Atlanta---right now I am eying motorcars LTD. They seem to be not overly expensive and have most of what I need. I didn't think of the vendors section, I will go check that out now. Thanks again---Scott

The only place I have ordered from (for both my wife's Mercedes and my Jaguar) with zero hastles or concerns is
http://www.allpartsexpress.com/
The rare occasion of a mix up in the order has been quickly resolved and if it's not listed on their website, Phil will do his best and probably get it for you.

Thanks for all the help---I ended going to all parts express (ala Mailshack) and Lee was very helpful. For the CPS I had to go to their sister site, Peachparts. I checked around and there appears to be a short supply of crank position sensors. No one had one.
All parts (peach parts) had one in stock and I got it for---ouch---$172$---see if that doesn't cramp your beer budget! I also picked up some coil gaskets, and an air and fuel filter--oh, and a coil cover gasket as mine was missing. Next weekend is going to be fun. Anyways, all parts express seems to be a good place. I'll let you know if everything comes through.-----Scott

i had GREAT service from www.jagbits.com. On a trans mount, door handle, sway bar parts, and a few other odds and ends they beat the price of my friends shop, and he gives me the best price he can.
