Goodish....if expensive. I tend to buy my stuff from mister-auto.es. Better prices but you have to wait for delivery and returns can be awkward. They have never let me down ( yet )

I found the local recambios people are OK but a but they prefer straight forward requests. For instance they just couldn't get their head around why you want a Renault 5 thermostat for a rover 75. Pretty much everything I've purchased from the shop has had to be ordered in so you might as well just use Mr auto.

Breakers are OK but again expensive for 2nd hand but then again most 2nd hand cars are more expensive here than the uk.
