Default Nuts and bolts for your car? Buy local!

Just replacing a few more bolts off the car, I wanted stainless bolts.

Screwfix wanted £1.11 for TEN. My local Bapp nut and bolt stockist will sell me A HUNDRED for £4.50!!!

Likewise, button head flanged, £8 a hundred!

The only things I CAN'T get local are flange head stainless hex.

That's the place.

They don't keep odd size washers, mind, or flange bolts, so I'll have to buy off e-bay at £3.25 for only ten

And they will be high tensile bolts, available for pennies elsewhere!
