[quote][i]Originally posted by Graham88[/i] [quote][i]Originally posted by Jambo[/i] Graham it's a risk exercise, some 150k cars will be fine others will be ready for crushing. The latter is the more likely... A second hand headlamp is not the same as a new one, at the time those units where £3-400 second hand but that was 5years ago... The part I used for the alternator was a branded unit without the bmw stamp about £200 vs £600. Worked perfectly fine. I suppose being the age they are now with a fair amount being broken then the second hand parts cost will be better and more widely available. [/quote] Oh yeah obviously not the same, but like you said the 2nd hand market is huge. It depends really what breaks? Stuff like alternators I'd go pattern part, but stuff like bushes, lower arms, suspension components etc has to be genuine IMO Tyres you just can't get away from the cost however they have also come down a lot in price, I just picked up 2 rears 265/30/19 for £300 from Tyre Leader I think it was. I paid £500 for the same 2 years ago! [/quote]
