Euro Car Parts

Post by Devon_Fourie »

Just thought I would give everyone the heads up that Euro car parts currently have 50% off brake discs/pads, air/oil/fuel & pollen filters, batteries and 45% off engine oils.

This promo is working with various other products but the amount of discount varies.

Sale55 and ends on the 31st July.

Oh and it is working on wiper blades as well.

Worth noting, Euro Car Parts may not be the best on pricing, even with the 50% discount they regularly offer. As a member of the Lexus Owners Club (despite no longer owning a Lexus, in a mode we like to call 'doing a Nigel'), I get a 15% discount card for use at Halfords. That netted me a full set of Pagid discs, all 4 corners, at 10% cheaper than the ECP discounted price. Always good to shop around for the best deal on what you need :)

They have pretty deep discounts regularly, but as Sam's said remember to shop around, and as always I'd be careful about Oils from there as they never seem to have any of the recommended products for us.

However Varta E23's are cheapo if it's what is advertised! About £1 cheaper between there and Tayna. I might just go plump for one...

Basic marketing ploy. Im sure theres something the advertising standards agency added for supermarkets and the ilk on "deals on for too long its actually the price it should be." or some such but I can't 100% remember.. Would surely apply here too.

So you can buy one in the "Sale" and say "look at all the money I saved" , if you need to convince yourself, or someone else ;)

They do inflate their prices so you do need to do like for like comparison with competitors
But so does everyone else .... Just look at camel camel camel price tracking on Amazon deals!

PS gsf carparts usually have good deals on brembo pads
