DELIVERY POLICY.

Please note postage costs are to most mainland UK addresses, contact us for postage to Isles, Highlands or elsewhere. The parts we sell are from auto-salvage and used cars and, as such, these parts will sometimes have small marks on them from everyday use ie: stone chips, cracks or more. These minor blemishes will not be pointed out but any marks we consider significant will always be listed in the description.

We will endeavour to supply the exact part you require but due to variations in manufacture we cannot guarantee parts are correct for the purpose required. It is the customers responsibility to make sure that the parts bought are for their particular vehicle, however, if we are notified within 14 days of purchase for any incorrectly fitting part we will attempt to replace it for another part in similar condition. We will exchange or refund faulty parts with the exception of electrical goods which will only be exchanged. Please check goods on receipt and DO NOT SIGN FOR if damaged. Faulty/damaged goods MUST be notified WITHIN 14 DAYS OF RECEIPT otherwise NO REFUND will be given. Refunds/replacements are for parts only carriage charges are not included therefore are non refundable. 60 day warranty covers the replacement/refund of parts ONLY, runs from the date of purchase, is void without proof of purchase and does NOT cover labour costs.

These terms and conditions of sale are not intended to restrict or exclude any legal rights bestowed or implied by Law or a consumers statutory rights under the 'Sale of Goods Act' 1979 or 'The Unfair Contract Act' 1977 or any amendment thereof
