    Are there any main dealers for any of the brands that offer online parts delivery? There's plenty in the UK and most of them will deliver to Ireland, the dealers here are missing out not providing the service. Much easier for them and you to order what you want online rather than have to give part numbers and have them searching through stock over the phone.

    Doesn't have to be a full parts catalogue, just the basic genuine parts like filters, brakes, small consumable parts and fluids, just place your order and have them delivered.

    If they started that, it would confirm that Irish dealerships are fleecing the public.

    Oh and parts from UK via parcel motel FtW

    That's a good idea alright. Would be very handy for people that work 9-5 etc meaning they can only get to the dealer on a Saturday morning plus it would mean a bit more choice in which dealer you buy off as they all tend to charge different prices for the same parts. Even if they just started with selling all filters and fluids as you said op it would be useful to a lot if people.

    I'm picturing a whole page with POA as the price for everything...

    Ireland is years behind UK for selling anything online. It can be very frustrating at times.

    There,I fixed it for you.

    But let me share a "secret" with you: most motor factors work with a 100% profit margin, but even 200% - 300% isn't unheard of.
    So, always shop around...
