to order some opel badges and the response i got was "we are a vauxhall dealer not an opel dealer, opel is not avaliable in the UK"
Didn't want to start a debate so just left it.
WHY?! when numerous people have said vauxhall will order in opel stuff.

Your Vauxhall dealer is a un helpful bunch of idiots. Go in there and ask again.

I find some Vauxhall dealers are more helpful than others. And some know fuck all. Different thing but I went to one Vauxhall dealer and asked if they had any genuine interior mats for my car and got told they dont make them anymore  yet went to another one and asked the same thing and they said they still make them and also had them in stock anyway

I knew that Vauxhall still made them yet for some reason they didn't they have been useless with other people too when they've gone in there for parts

I'm sure someone like LMF Vauxhall would sort the badges out for you no bother. Do they not sell Opel badges on Ebay too?

I got back from Spain last week, was gonna go to one of the dealers while I was there and buy a load of Opel badges and grills but decided against it as didn't think there would be enough demand for them. Gutted!

I would of thought a Vauxhall dealer could get them as my mate put some heated Calibra leather seats in his Corsa and knew that some of the Corsas in Germany came with heated seats as standard. So he went to the Vauxhall dealer and they ordered the switches and surround from Germany for him!

As you said, it varies from dealer to dealer. Cant believe we have a crappy vauxhall dealer, I will try again some time but i dont hold out much hope. Will wait to see what LMF says.
