Wondering if anyone has used this supplier and if u haven't then i recommend not to, i orderd a few parts seeing as it would be quicker than from usa. Postage was more that the items cost! Haven't seen anything and no reply to email, even an answerphone whenever u ring up. DONT waste ur time get what u need from the states, at least i can get the money back through paypal.

Used him about years ago and was fed nothing but bullsheit about my order status. I cancelled the order and never used him again. If it's something I need next day and dont have in my own stock I tend to use ultimate spares or US Automotive.

Re: americancarspares.co.uk aka Peter Cooper

UK Distributors are a very sore point with me,and many of them deserve their demise,I have been told every bull***t story possible,Even the more popular ones have given me some sort of grief waiting for parts-yet getting the parts is never a problem when you pay them!!No more grief now!Thanks to ebay & Others that are actually helpful!!across the pond!!If there are any UK Vendors reading this-DONT blame us & the Internet for your loss of sales,LOOK at your selves and the shoddy service that you provide!!

Re: americancarspares.co.uk aka Peter Cooper

Finally have the money back from Peter Cooper thanks to paypal, dont go anywhere near americancarspares.co.uk, they won't send / reply or do anything besides take ur money! USAutomotive are pretty good service it seems and fast delivery, but only one snag.....Prices!!! The markup is just crazy, so dont buy from their unless u need it asap. It even says on their webpage that the most common question they have is "can we get it cheaper?" and they have the cheek to say that it isnt possiblethey charge at least double for everything!!
