porsche 944 s2 parts
after a long search for the perfect online shop, i didn't found anything.
uk's online shops are too expensive and usa's online shops are cheap but not reliable.
did anybody of you use a online shop and have been satisfied??????????

On line I tend to use Berlyn but Bert's website is pants. Promax aren't bad for pricing & their web site is OK. Last trip to the US I went to Zims & they ship all over the world & seem pretty good but I picked up the bits I needed there. My local OPC are pretty good & are 25 minutes away, they get bits in 48 hours a lot of the time as well.

what about vertexauto?

Never heard of them. there are loads in the US TBH. I met the guys at Zims last year & was impressed with what they do.

Bare in mind if you get stung for VAT & any form of import duty then the savings frequently disappears.

i contact with Zims and i am waiting for their reply.
also i check Promax webpage but something is going on with checkout.i will try again tonight.
Berlyn is very expensive almost double price.
Any european shops????????

I Can't believe Berlyn are almost double price, he's normally 10-20% higher on some bits than others but it is very variable. He has helped with technical stuff in the past though.
Try phoning Promax they were very good on the phone.

He's in Cyprus Jim.

Ah Ha just read the line at the bottom!

thanks for helping me
i had sent a list with parts at berlyn and the same to vertexauto and i compare the totals,i include vat, axes and shipping.
what about cyprus?

taxes

In the UK we have to pay taxes when items arrive so extra tax on the US price seen on their website.

anyway i have to go for 3 days for a military exercise,i will not have internet there but only guns.
see you in 3 days
i hope that we will find a solution

Have you tried Lindsey racing. I've bought parts from them several times in the past & found them very good. They communicate well by email & always send a shipping quote before dispatch to make sure your happy. They stock most of the parts your likely to need & can get others to order. I only stopped using them due to the weak pound. Other one that was ok was 944online.com Both USA.

hello
i came back from the army camp.
any europe onlines shops?

If you speak or more importantly read German you can find lots of parts on eBay.de. I however don't, so I use the translate feature in Google Chrome. There are many shops that list 944 parts. I recently got my waterpump from mh-teile. Compared to getting it from the US or the UK the price was about one third less. Excellent service as well and I was told that If I wanted anything else not listed they could very likely get it.
