Default XK8 parts sources

Hi All,

i'm sure this has been discussed before, but i couldn't find it, neither in the sticky posts. I was looking for a list of reliable parts sources like websites - preferably in Europe/UK. i found some in UK but the prices are very close to what the local dealer is offering me.

Thank you and sorry if this was covered before but i couldn't find anything.

Site sponsors jagbits.com and sngbarratt.com I have used both, SNG is a little better on part prices but I feel Jagbits has much better customer service which frankly is more important to me 99% of the time. Just my opinion not trying to insult anyone.

SNG Barratt's - forum sponsor - is a great source (request a free XK8/R parts catalog) and offers forum members a discount

Perhaps obvious, but I have found eBay to be a great source of parts. I recently purchased a brand new in bag oem evap pipe and hoses that listed for over $230.00 for $35.00 on eBay and there is another now listed for $78.00. There are several Jag dealers that sell on eBay and generally about a 15% discount off list if you are in a hurry. You can often find NOS parts that are no longer available from the factory there too.

I've ordered parts from SNG Barratt in both the UK and USA. Never had a problem. You can usually choose between OEM and "quality" aftermarket parts. Mention "jaguarforum" and receive a 10% discount. Just my two cents.

eBay is another good source. However, if you need multiple parts (ie; suspension components) you will most likely have to order from several different sellers and then the shipping costs can sometimes negate any savings.

For the moment, the best price i get for the wishbones is the local official dealer...

am sure there are a lot more jag repair shops there than here in the usa ask them for a parts supplier they may be able to help. look on the forum for recommended repair shops near you.
