I think I may need a wheel bearing (or two) £42 doesn't seem too bad a price . . .

I have used them in France, but same company. Returns is the problem. You have to pay return shipping. They sent me the wrong discs for a Suzuki Jimny 1.5 td. Return shipping in France cost more than the cost price of the discs. They are still sat in my garage. Needless to say the AutoDoc app is now deleted and I will not be using them again. I believe that all parts are dispatched from a central depot in the EU, Germany if my memory serves me right.....but I could be wrong 🤔

I have just used them for some service parts.
Fuel, oil, air and cabin filters. Saved so much on the fuel filter alone (Purflex OEM ) easily paid for the postage.
Think it took about a week for delivery, which I think is good. Thumbs Up Now at the point when I learn something new something old is lost out the other side !
Now retired so it doesn't matter anymore.
Freelander now gone.

thanks for input, yes, i went ahead and got a couple of wheel bearings and some track control arms, their site suggests they have a depot in England, but you can't always believe the internet Rolling with laughter Rolling with laughter

I have used them a few times and they are very good. However, be aware that the .co.uk thing is a miracle of the internet. Although their prices and service is all genuine and good, they are in Germany and so any parts you order will be subject to longer than expected shipping times. I've not ordered since Brexit and so don't know if that will add time / cost complications. FL2 HSE Auto Galway Green

I have used them recently and the items do take a little longer to arrive, my most recent part had an electrical fault plus other issues and after a few returned emails they came up with a refund

I bought two front discs and pads “ Ferodo” from them in February and were genuine from ferodo having been told sometimes motor factors use branded boxes with Chinese parts inside, I knew they were genuine as an ex colleague worked at the factory in Chapel en le Frith and when I gave him the identity numbers of the discs and pads he told me of their origin of build. “ Genuine “.

The car stops on a sixpence and no noise either, slightly more dust on the wheels tho. Can put up with that as loads cheaper than euro cp or competitors.

Yes cannot say anything bad about autodoc and all the parts are sent with a confirmation email with tracking capabilities so you know when they are going to arrive, like I for example had a delivery email, stripped down the front brakes and within an hour the parts arrived although it was a ten day wait from the original order day.
