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.

Check out dcrautoparts.com they are the best source for xkr xj8 parts I have found with some of the best prices. they are in Scotland. check them out...

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

Hello Radu.
We have branches in USA, England, France & Holland for you to order from. All of which stock Genuine OEM & Aftermarket parts for your XK8. As mentioned above you can request a free catalog by contacting your preferred branch on our website SNG Barratt - The Ultimate Jaguar Parts Specialist

If i can personally be of assistance please do not hesitate to drop me a PM/Email.

Regards

William@SngBarratt.Com

thank you. my parts list revolves around front suspension - wishbones, bushes, pivot arms etc but i see most of them are not available anymore...

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.

Sometimes cheaper.....................

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

edited wrong thread

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.
