Subaru Parts Prices
 

Subaru are something else when it comes to genuine parts!

Got a problem with my alternator, so getting a new one in before Germany obviously.

Anyhow, I get 2 prices, one for a genuine Subaru part. One for a reconditioned one. Now, I knew there would be a cost difference but not in a million years did I guess how much.

Reconditioned Just under £200.00 inc vat.

Genuine Subaru part at ..........








































Just under £1000.00 inc VAT :shock:

The greedy ****s! :rant:

wtf!!!

Yeah, tell me about it. :deadhorse:

Did you ask for a 'Alternator' or an 'Alternative Engine' ????

Just drop it into SAE in Ore village and get your existing one reconditioned, git to be easier and cheaper if you're near Hastings. If you're not near Hastings I'll just shut up as I don't know who else reconditions starters and alternators nowadays.

Alternative car maybe! :lol:


Crowborough mate, not too far away. Orders placed and part being fitted on Saturday.

Who did you speak to at subaru, Dick Turpin? Bloody ridiculous money. We have just replaced one on my business partners RR sport and that was only £278 brand new and has to power more lights than are on the palace pier.

Feck that, Subaru are having a laugh with prices like that :(

There's plenty of these cars being broken for parts nowadays, so i'd be looking on scoobynet for a 2nd hand one before going any where near paying that kind of money!

LOL that's nuts.

Dave Hollamby was absolutely dumbstruck at the cost when he told me!

My reply had a big fat " F " at the start! Hence the reason he had the recon price lined up.

Robbing bastards :shark:

Right then, time to get a container of genuine ones shipped in from japan and start selling them.

Subaru/Lucas Alternator from Euro Car Parts cost £158-£258

Holy sweet mother of god!!! That is crazy, I got a price for one for a SVX & it was more than the cars worth £1350+ vat.

I just ordered some bolts for a yamaha Jetski & that wasn't cheap @ £135.35.

Think main dealers are really taking the piss.

Ah look in defence it does come with a 2 year no money back guarantee :D

Hooooooleeeeeee ffffffffff;)

Sure you don't get a geezer to push start ya car for that money then walk in front with a torch...........

When I got my replacement compressor the original price was £700 but the guys at Ben and Colvill got the price down to £300 for me as thought it was taking the p*ss!

PMSL :lol:

It's just plain fookin crazy. £800.00 + vat is somewhat having a laugh isn't it.

You can buy a cheap classic for that!!!

When will these company's learn, at them sort of prices they will NEVER sell one so make zero profit, now if they dropped the price to a reasonable level they WILL sell some and make a profit, common sense really :fool:
