Pommie Second Hand Parts Site
http://www.vwrelics.co.uk/parts.html
If you think we are paying through the nose down here in Aus, I reckon the prices on this site might cause a rethink. I'm not saying these things
are overpriced but it makes me glad I don't live over there. Make that the 572,357th reason I don't live there.....

what madman came up with that pricing!?! some parts seem reasonable, but others are just rediculous! 145pounds for a bay front door, i was happy with
$200 for my pair of completely straight and rust free ones!
also, anyone looked at their gallery, HOW MANY OVALS HAVE THEY SOLD! must have sold 2/3rds of all the ones in Europe!

Stupid Bus prices, VAT, £4 a gallon petrol, £4 for 20 smokes, hardly any surf, crap at the sports WE invented, crap at the others too (apart from
'Curling' - WTF?????), rain, snow, rust, expensive clothes.....etc, etc
Could be worse though eh.........could be convicts!!!

Don't hold your breath!
I noticed some of this level of pricing at Action day in Brisbane, $1000 for a pair of resto'd 60's Beetle towel rail bumpers, I also
noticed some of the recognised traders buying cheap off private sellers then offering the same items at a substantially marked up price.
If you want parts for future projects, get them now, before the market goes through the roof! it is going to happen!

I can think of another reason.......Pikies, after spending 6 months working in the fenlands, I will be glad to never lay eyes on one again.
Aussie drifters and ferals are so much nicer, they don't stab you.
Well, at least not too often.
Ooh, suits you sir!
