Overton, and no they aint good, i got 3 torsion bars for a 205 gti from them, all of which were completely shagged, ended up rebuilding the original one.

it seems 2/3rds of the new price for a part with a 1 month warranty, dont add up to me!

I could be wrong but I think that there pricing policy is 50% of the new price you would pay from the dealer. Anything I ever priced there was around that mark.

well depends what you are after i suppose, parts of a brand new car will be fine but anything off and old hot hatch for example will more than likely be fit for the scrapper

15 yrs ago they were good anf then about 10 yrs ago they got greedy, but not all their fault I guess.
Insurance companies realised that they needed to get as much money as possible from written off cars and this hiked the prices up somewhat. Ever tried to buy a write off with only body and glass damage...not cheap.

But Overton are still bloody greedy, no doubt there...and they have a poor attitude towards customers.
