rang them for all my F7R bits
here are their quoted prices:
BE gasket set £35.73 +VAT
Piston Rings £19.67 +VAT per cylinder
Thrust Washers £11.68 +VAT
Head Bolts £15.73 +VAT
Head Gasket Set £104.29 +VAT
er, wtf £105 +VAT for a head set? How do other people get such cheap prices from them? |

but the other stuff aint really cheap either.
Dan was saying he paid about £25 for the whole set of piston rings for his F7P.
Also his head bolts for about £7, whereas I've been quoted for the exact same thing £15.73 + VAT
dont get it  |

they can't even sell that properly. Inlet and exh man gaskets are both wrong.
Dan said he was trade. I very much doubt he got rings for 25 quid, per cyl maybe. |

yeah I know, you can use the exhaust gasket but it won't go onto the megane heatshield thingy right.
Still 25 quid at euro for the thing though mofo, well 25 + vat less than that one. |

Dan isnt lying...i get them at the same prices...trade.
They are usually account only...so you may have to do a bit of blagging. |
